Taula Capital, a macro hedge fund founded by former Millennium Management portfolio manager Diego Megia in 2023, nearly doubled its average employee compensation to £959,000 in 2025 despite suffering significant investment losses in 2026. The firm reported revenues of £92.3m and profits of £4.8m in 2025, marking annualised increases of 152% and 40%, respectively.

Average headcount grew by 19% to 73 employees as the company spent £1.2m on recruitment and staff development. Taula began trading in mid-2024 with a discretionary global macro strategy, attracting substantial institutional backing and reaching approximately $8.5bn in assets under management by March 2026 following a $1.75bn capital raise.

The firm's senior investment team includes several former Millennium executives, such as deputy chief investment officer Stefan Ericsson. However, Taula's performance has deteriorated in 2026 amid volatile macroeconomic conditions, with the firm down more than 9% by late September.
