Marble Bar's website describes the firm as a London-based alternative investment manager specialising in equity strategies, founded in 2002, and names "Hilton Nathanson" as chairman and founding partner. It states that Marble Bar Asset Management LLP is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority and is registered in England and Wales as OC332989.[1]

Notes on identity matching
The Companies House officer record used in this article is that of Hilton Darren Nathanson (officer ID I4ijjPwfEY1lJLSlSkHGVuIxdYs), which includes the Marble Bar Asset Management LLP and United Jewish Israel Appeal appointments. A separate Companies House officer record under the name "Hilton NATHANSON", without the middle name Darren, lists a directorship of Promeritum West Limited (14428788) from 19 October 2022; that record is not treated as the same person here, because no opened source ties the two filings together.
