More than 70 former employees of Englander have launched their own funds across the globe.

One could argue that Millennium Management’s greatest advantage over other hedge funds is its ability to keep talented people in-house.

The massive hedge fund — which manages some $46 billion in assets across hundreds of teams — has a unique structure that lets portfolio managers operate in independent silos.
