Carlyle hedge fund clients seek to pull out nearly $2bn

Investors are preparing to pull roughly half their money from Claren Road Asset Management, the latest blow for Carlyle Group’s hedge fund firm.

Clients of Claren Road have requested nearly $2 billion of their money back from the New York-based firm, Carlyle said in a regulatory filing Monday. The money is scheduled to be paid back after September 30, said a person familiar with the matter. The firm managed about $4.1 billion at the end of July.
