GSA Capital Partners LLP, the London-headquartered $7.5 billion quantitative asset manager, has let go of five people in its Hong Kong office, people with knowledge of the matter said.
Four people on a team that handles discretionary equity trading in Asia lost their jobs, as did a person managing investment-bank relationships for GSA’s so-called alpha capture program, one of the people said, asking not to be identified because the details are private.
