John Head IV Benedicte Gravrand, Opalesque Geneva for New Managers: Gallery Capital Management, an alternative investment manager based in Atlanta, GA and founded in 2012, is readying its first fund, which will launch later this month with $5m of the principal’s capital.

It has two parts: the market, which is made up of many independent businesses, and the Corporation of Lloyd’s, which is there to oversee that market. It has been the global capital of insurance for more than 300 years, and now has an Asia hub in Singapore.
