Sternbach will report to Man GLG’s co-CEOs Teun Johnston and Mark Jones.
Teun Johnston said: “Moni is an experienced European fund manager with an excellent track record and he will further enhance our capabilities in the European Long Short space. His mid-cap expertise will form the basis of a new strategy which we will announce in due course and it is with great pleasure we welcome him to Man GLG.”
Moni Sternbach said: “Man GLG has a clear advantage in delivering investment returns and creating value for clients. Its leading edge infrastructure, corporate access and distribution are differentiators in an increasingly complex environment and I am hugely excited to be joining its exceptionally strong team of analysts, portfolio managers, strategists and traders.”
