Reuters – A portfolio run by Man Group, the world’s biggest listed hedge fund firm, has invested $50 million (30 million pounds) in a new start-up fund run by three former Brevan Howard traders.
Man’s RMF Global Emerging Managers strategy has put money with 5:15 Capital Management, a Greenwich, Connecticut-based fixed income arbitrage firm set up this month and named after a song from The Who’s 1973 album Quadrophenia.
Man will take a share of revenue from the firm, whose founders also worked together at Greenwich Capital Markets.
