Man Investment is not only the largest hedge fund in Europe, but also one of the oldest companies, being founded in 1783, by James Man who was specialized in selling sugar and got rich after signing a contract with the British Royal Fleet to deliver rum for sailors. The contract was valid for almost 200 years, until 1970 when sailors were left without free alcohol. Currently Man Investments is managed by Peter Clarke and has impressive $41.4 billion in AUM.
