The Odey Scandal Sparks Reevaluation of Hedge Fund Vetting Processes.

Crispin Odey's hedge fund, Odey Asset Management, is on the brink of dissolution after sexual assault and harassment allegations were made against its founder. The firm is in "advanced discussions" to transfer funds and staff to other firms, and has shut down one of its funds and halted investors from withdrawing their money from others. The accusations were made by 13 women in a Financial Times investigation, and Odey was removed from the partnership within two days of the article's publication. The Financial Conduct Authority has been called on to answer questions about its supervision of Odey Asset Management.
