Man Group Portfolio holdings
Man Group is a hedge fund company listed in London that grew out of a sugar brokerage started in 1783. Its founder, James Man, was a barrel maker's apprentice who became a sugar broker, and in 1784 the business won the contract to supply the Royal Navy's daily rum ration. It was renamed ED&F Man in 1869 after the initials of his grandsons, and in 2000 the commodities business was split off and taken private, leaving Man Group to focus on financial services. Its investing arms include Man AHL and Man Numeric, which run computer-driven strategies, alongside research-led stock and credit investing, and it bought Man GLG in 2010. From 2002 to 2019 the firm put its name to the Man Booker literary prize as sponsor.
