Reuters – NewSmith Capital Partners, one of the hedge fund firms to appear before last month’s Treasury Select Committee into the banking crisis, told Reuters on Thursday partner Jeremy Silewicz had left the firm.
Silewicz, who joined NewSmith in March 2007 as a portfolio manager on its European fund before moving to a role in marketing, left at the end of last year, a spokesman said.
He added that Andrew Irving, a member of NewSmith’s operations team, had also left the firm, but declined to comment on the reasons for their departures.
