Dris Upitis, one of four management committee members at hedge fund Viking Global Investors, has resigned from his current position, Bloomberg reports. Upitis’ departure follows the resignation of CIO, David Ott, who stepped down in April last year.

Upitis was an analyst at Connecticut-based Viking Global for six years before being promoted to senior portfolio manager in 2010. He has overseen most of Viking’s $10 billion in capital since April with other colleagues.
