Peter Nicholas de Putron (born 15 October 1963[citation needed]) is the founder of G Research, an algorithmic trading fund, and associated companies.[1]
De Putron grew up in Guernsey, where his father was a local politician. He is regarded as a very private individual. He founded G Research in 1997, which mostly manages his own money.[1] He is resident in Jersey.
De Putron is the brother-in-law of Andrea Leadsom, a British Conservative Party member of Parliament and financial services minister who was briefly a contender for the position of leader of the Conservative party and hence Prime Minister in July 2016. He has donated money to the Leadsom and the Conservative Party, as well as Eurosceptic think tanks.[2]
His wife, Carolynne Hayley de Putron, is head of investor relations at De Putron Fund Management for which Andrea Leadsom also worked in the 1990s.[3][4][5][6][7] De Putron was one of those mentioned in the "Jersey files" which were leaked from Kleinwort Benson to the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists.[8]
