Notes
Noam Gottesman is a New York City-based, British-American businessman, former hedge fund manager, and co-founder of GLG Partners. He attended Hasmonean High School in Hendon, London, and may have been in the same class as Alan Howard (co-founder of Brevan Howard). He later studied at Columbia University.
Gottesman left Goldman Sachs in 1995 with Pierre Lagrange and Jonathan Green to co-found GLG Partners, which grew to manage 1.6 billion. He subsequently co-founded Nomad Foods (frozen food company).
He is one of at least three Hasmonean alumni who became major figures in the hedge fund industry, alongside Alan Howard and Mark Shooter.
