Wiliam von Mueffling, the star hedge fund manager who left Lazard in January this year after a disagreement over the division of the spoils, hopes to raise 350 million for his own Cantillon fund by the end of this summer. Or so claims a report published in the Financial Times in London yesterday. The fund is apparently named after the Irish banker Richard Cantillon (1680-1734), whose Essai Sur La Nature Di Commerce En General inspired the Physiocratic school of economics in France. The members of this eighteenth century school, led by a surgeon called Francois Quesnay, were the last French intellectuals to believe in Free Trade.
