Chris Boas, who quit last year as global head of credit at Citadel LLC’s securities unit, is planning to start a hedge fund, according to two people with knowledge of the matter.

Boas’s Longwood Credit Partners LLP will seek to profit from price differences between debt securities and is scheduled to start in the first quarter of next year, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the information is private. Boas declined to comment when contacted on his mobile phone.
