ValueWalk – Britain’s Prime Minister David Cameron invited several hedge fund executives to dine with him at his London home. The three top executives apparently made significant donations the Conservative Party in the U.K.
On July 14th of 2010, Michael Farmer, founder of RK Capital Management; Michael Hintze, founder of CQS, and Paul Ruddock; founder of Lansdowne Partners enjoyed a special thank-you dinner that was exclusive to major Tory party donors and their wives. The party came just two months after Cameron won the election, the first in thirteen years to replace the Labour Party. In November 2011, Michael Hintze and his wife were invited to another dinner party. It seems like Cameron has a solid business relationship with these hedge fund managers.
