Activist investor and philanthropist Chris Hohn’s fund surged by nearly 33% last year to record its best performance in four years, far ahead of the majority of hedge fund peers.

The Children’s Investment fund’s gains, set out in a letter to investors seen by Bloomberg, mark a return to profitability. A loss of 18% in 2022 ended a profitable streak that had spanned almost a decade and a half.
