Oct. 8 (Bloomberg) -- Bill Gross’s Janus Global Unconstrained Bond Fund received $66.4 million in client deposits in September, the month Gross announced he was leaving Pacific Investment Management Co. to join Janus Capital Group Inc.

The deposits bring assets at the fund, which Gross started managing this week, to $79.1 million, according to Chicago-based fund researcher Morningstar Inc.

Gross, who co-founded Pimco in 1971 and ran the world’s largest bond mutual fund, left the firm Sept. 26 after his deputies threatened to quit and management debated his ouster, according to people familiar with the matter. His departure prompted investors to review their investments with the firm and move money to competitors.
