Liam Fox and Atlantic Bridge
Hintze was caught up in the 2011 scandal involving then defence secretary Liam Fox and his friend and self-styled adviser, Adam Werritty.
Hintze had funded Fox's charity Atlantic Bridge, which was at the centre of the scandal. According to the Guardian, the accounts for former Defence Secretary Liam Fox's defunct charity Atlantic Bridge "show that £104,000 – or 58 per cent of the charities voluntary income – had come from one source: the Hintze Family Foundation." The paper concluded that if Adam Werritty drew a salary as executive director of the Atlantic Bridge, the money would in practice be largely coming from Hintze.[1]
Hintze had also provided Werritty with desk space at CQS' London office.[2]
One of Hintze’s employees, Oliver Hylton, was also the sole director of Pargav, the vehicle which funded Adam Werritty following the closure of Atlantic Bridge.[3]
Hylton was also a director of Security Futures which had donated £15,000 to Atlantic Bridge the previous year.[1]
In May 2011 Hintze's company paid an estimated £10,439 for a private jet to fly Liam Fox from Washington to Britain.[4]
In October 2011 the Financial Times reported that CQS had a $21.5 million stake in L-3, a US communications firm which had a contact with the Ministry of Defence. The paper quoted an un-named Tory MP as stating: “Hintze is not motivated by [financial] defence interests,” he said, “but a shared ideological agenda [with Mr Fox]. But perception does matter.”[5]
