Additionally, Powe will continue to manage his PCM Europe Fund, which was launched in 2009.

Under the deal, GLG will take over the management contract of this fund from Powe Capital Management.

Teun Johnston, co-CEO of GLG, said: "Rory has an outstanding track record of generating alpha in European equities, and he will be a great addition to our investment team as we continue to build out our long-only platform.

"Rory will manage assets with the same philosophy and methodology he did at PCM, but with the benefit of GLG’s resources, strength, infrastructure and talent," he added.
