The report cites unnamed sources as saying that Freestone Grove Partners, which is aiming to launch late this year with a focus on stocks across sectors, will be a multi-manager equity fund employing a market neutral strategy.
Barker, 44, spent 16 years at Citadel where he was a member of the firm’s portfolio committee and ran Surveyor, an equities trading unit, for five years before leaving in 2021.
