Billionaire Michael Platt’s BlueCrest Capital Management is on track for its best year since becoming a private investment firm.

The firm, which now runs Platt’s wealth and that of his partners, has soared 114% so far this year, according to a person with knowledge of the matter. The gains, if sustained for the rest of the year, will make 2022 its most profitable year. The Financial Times reported the returns earlier.
