Prologue Capital, an alternative investment firm that manages a discretionary fixed income strategy, has hired Manny Mifsud as a portfolio manager focusing on foreign exchange trading.
Mifsud works in the firm’s London office and reports to founding partners David Lofthouse and Graham Walsh.
“Manny’s knowledge and experience in FX will be a significant addition to the firm,” says Lofthouse. “FX is an important asset class both in its own right and also in its impact on the fixed income markets.”
Mifsud was most recently head of trading at Nylon Capital and focused on FX strategies. Prior to joining Nylon in 2007 he was managing director and senior portfolio manager at Tribeca Global Management, which was part of Citibank Alternative Investments. He has also managed portfolios at JP Morgan Chase and AIG Asset Management.
In addition to Mifsud the firm hired Noah Estrin as a senior portfolio manager focused on trading US agency mortgages in 2010. In 2009, the firm hired Devin Graham to the role of chief risk officer, a newly created position.
