Institutional Investor Background
GLG Partners LP is an alternative asset manager that was founded in September 1995 as a division of Lehman Brothers and was restructured as a separate entity in 2000. The three founding partners, co-CEO Noam Gottesman, Senior Managing Director Pierre Lagrange, and former partner Philippe Jabre, were previously traders at Lehman. In November 2007, the firm was taken public and started trading on the NYSE. Bankrupt entities of Lehman retain a 10% stake in the firm. GLG manages over 25 offshore hedge funds using long-only and alternative strategies for high net worth and institutional clients. The firm is headquartered in London and has significant investment operations in New York. In April 2009, GLG acquired Societe Generale Asset Management UK, which had been Societe Generale's UK long-only asset management business.
