The move by the Rokos Capital Management founder, whose macro hedge fund manages about $22 billion (£17bn), comes in the middle of a political row over tax policy and Britain's ability to retain its wealthiest residents. Bloomberg first reported the move. A spokesperson for Rokos declined to comment.
