Jain Global's UK branch saw a significant surge in profits and employee numbers in 2025, according to newly filed accounts. The hedge fund's London-based operations more than doubled its profit, reaching £9.2 million, compared to £6 million in the previous 16-month period. This substantial increase in profits was coupled with a nearly threefold expansion of the firm's workforce in London, with employee count rising to 89 from around one-third of that number.
The average compensation per employee decreased to approximately £611,000 last year, down from roughly £900,000 the previous year. This suggests that Jain Global's recruitment drive extended beyond senior investment professionals, lowering the average pay despite the increase in staff. The UK partnership had five partners during the period, with Ashwin Kumar, James O'Callaghan, and Surendran Pathmanathan remaining partners.
Jain Global UK Limited, which owns the LLP, received about £7.5 million of the £9.2 million profit, while the individual partners collectively received approximately £2.4 million.
