Business Insider hedge fund reporter Saacks departs

Bradley Saacks

Bradley Saacks, who covered hedge funds for Business Insider, has left to become content director for a new company.

Starting Monday, he’ll be at 3i, a new private community of investors with access to a unique deal flow.

“It’s been a great 3.5 years covering so many different hedge fund quirks and data-related things, but I was ready to take a leap and try something new,” he wrote on Twitter.

Before Business Insider, he spent the two years and three months at Ignites, the Financial Times’ mutual fund news branch, where he reported on sales, distribution and marketing in the mutual fund world.

He interned at Bloomberg News and the Austin American-Statesman in college. He is a UNC-Chapel Hill graduate in journalism.
