Jain Global, the hedge fund founded by former Millennium Co–Chief Investment officer Bobby Jain, has expanded its teams in Singapore, London and New York, ahead of its planned July launch, according to a report by eFinancial Careers.
Benedict Stoddart, who spent the past decade as a rates trader at Morgan Stanley in London before moving to Frankfurt, is returning to the UK for his new role in Jain’s London office.
Also in London, Richard Martin, who was once Head of Quantitative Strategies at Man Group but has spent the past five years as an independent consultant focused on systematic trading, has joined as a credit portfolio manager in London.
In Singapore Jain has recruited Sant Gupta as a macro portfolio manager from Crescent Asia Asset Management. Gupta was previously a macro prop trader at Nomura.
In New York, Jonathan Plattner has joined from Jane Street, where he spent nearly six years after graduating from Cornell University.
