Billionaire hedge-fund manager Paul Tudor Jones found himself with his foot squarely in his mouth last month when he called motherhood a career “killer” for macro traders, noting, rather graphically, that “as soon as that baby’s lips touched that girl’s bosom, forget it.” Sadly, Jones doesn’t appear alone in his thinking; some Wall Street bosses […]

The number of hedge funds that closed their doors increased for the third straight year in 2012. Same song, different tune this year. It seems a different big-name fund closes each day, with clients redeeming billions from once high-profile money managers who just can’t seem to beat the S&P. There are plenty of valid reasons […]
The big bank which quietly lost 80% of its staff
If the threat of job loss is a measure of trauma (which it seemingly is) then the bankers who once worked for Dresdner Kleinwort in the City of London are among some of the most traumatized around. After being shunted over to Commerzbank in mid-2009, their numbers have progressively dwindled. Very few ex-Dresdner bankers are […]
