Move over CSI Mayfair, there’s a new cop-show in town. Collecting your thematic reviews of firm policies regarding market rumours from here in: Andrew Crain.
The Journal reports Crain, who, per our terrible pun, is Australian, is to be appointed head of the FSA’s new hedge fund team later this month:
The U.K.’s financial regulator has hired Australian Andrew Crain to head up the team that oversees the roughly 40 largest hedge-fund managers that operate in the U.K. Mr. Crain, a former regulator in his home country, assumes his new job later this month. The team he will run sits within the wholesale investment division of the Financial Services Authority, the U.K.’s equivalent of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
