Times Online – GLG Partners, the London-based hedge fund, is on the point of losing a star fund manager this weekend in a situation that mirrors the high-profile departure of another top manager, Greg Coffey, last year.
Robert Donald, who manages part of the $1.5 billion (£1.3 billion) European fund with Pierre Lagrange, is planning to leave GLG after six years to work with the legendary financier George Soros.
However, sources close to New York-listed GLG said the situation was still live. ”He has not formally resigned, though he has indicated his desire to leave,” one said.
