In a statement, the firm highlighted how she played key role in expanding the firm’s global research, investment strategies, and client service capabilities.

Emery will continue to serve in her leadership roles and as chair of the Dodge & Cox Funds Board throughout 2025, gradually transitioning her responsibilities. 

Succeeding Emery as CEO and chair of the Dodge & Cox Funds Board will be Roger Kuo, who currently serves as president of the firm. David Hoeft, the company’s chief investment officer, will take on the role of chair of the firm. Both leaders have extensive tenures with Dodge & Cox, with Kuo joining in 1998 and Hoeft in 1993.

The firm highlighted that their appointments mark the sixth generation of leadership since its founding in 1930.

Before Emery’s retirement at the end of the year, Dodge & Cox will also be seeing its COO Bill Strickland step down in June, a move that the firm announced in July last year. Succeeding him as Hallie Marshall, who assumed the role of associate COO as Strickland’s departure was announced.
