Billionaire Ken Griffin hired two veteran money managers from Louis Bacon’s hedge fund as he seeks to build a rival macro business.

Marco Birch and Eric Dannheim will join Griffin’s $30 billion Citadel later this year as senior portfolio managers, spokeswoman Julia Kosygina confirmed. They will be part of the Chicago-based hedge fund’s macro strategies business, which was started in early 2018, and report to group head Colin Lancaster.
