Alan Howard is a City financier who co-founded the hedge fund Brevan Howard in 2003.

Howard, 45, is a former Salomon Brothers bond trader, and has also worked for Credit Suisse.

His firm, based in Marks & Spencer's former headquarters on Baker Street, has grown to become the world's fourth-largest hedge fund with $30bn (£20bn) run by 300 staff.[1]

Howard, along with his CEO at Brevan Howard has relocated to Geneva, reportedly in the wake of the 50 per cent tax rate.
