A year after Kenneth C. Griffin’s Citadel Investment Group froze its Kensington and Wellington funds, investors will now be able to withdraw their capital starting November 30th, according to The New York Times. In a letter to investors, Mr. Griffin announced Citadel’s plan to lift the withdrawal suspension on both funds citing a dramatic recovery and the fact they are up more than 57 percent this year. In December 2008, Mr. Griffin issued a letter to investors continuing the suspension on withdrawals due to only modest improvements in the markets.
