Bloomberg – Stephen Diggle, the Singapore-based hedge fund manager who made $2.7 billion for investors as markets see-sawed in 2007 and 2008, is betting on price swings in government debt, currency and commodity markets amid concern that the debt crises in Europe and the U.S. may worsen.
There has been an “unprecedented level of transfer of indebtedness from banks to governments” after the global financial crisis that followed the 2008 collapse of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc., said Diggle, who started Vulpes Investment Management after liquidating Artradis Fund Management Pte’s volatility funds this year.
