Balyasny Asset Management, the multi-strategy hedge fund firm founded by Dmitry Balyasny, has appointed Aditya Singh, a former Goldman Sachs director, as a macro portfolio manager, according to report by Financial News.
The report cites unnamed sources familiar with the matter as confirming that Singh is set to join the firm’s London office in November.
Singh brings extensive experience to the role, having spent five years at Goldman Sachs, where he joined as an Executive Director in 2019 after a four-year tenure at Bank of America Merrill Lynch.
Balyasny, which oversees more than $20bn in assets, has been adding to its London team since the start of 2024. Earlier this year, the firm brought on James Watson, a former portfolio manager at Brevan Howard and Millennium, as a senior portfolio manager in the London office.
Additionally, George Tyrrell, another former Goldman Sachs executive director, also joined Balyasny’s London office as a Portfolio Manager.
Founded in 2001, Balyasny has grown to more than 1,900 employees across its offices in the US, Europe, Canada, the Middle East, and Asia. The hedge fund operates 165 investment teams spanning six strategies, including equities long-short, equities arbitrage, macro, commodities, systematic, and growth equity.
