Billionaire investor Kenneth Griffin leads one of the most successful hedge funds in the world. As the founder and CEO of Citadel Advisors, Griffin is widely known for his open-mindedness to diverse asset classes and love for math, evident from his quantitative investing approach, which helped Citadel generate over $74 billion (£54.7 billion) in net gains since its inception in 1990.
