He is richer than Manchester United owner and inventor James Dyson
If you ask someone in Britain to tell you who the Michael Platt (Michael Platt) will probably answer you “Michael who?”
In fact, he is the richest man in Britain, but – unlike, say, the oil magnate and co-owner of Manchester United, Sir Jim Ratcliffe (£13.1 billion) and inventor James Dyson (£10.8 billion), who are the second and third richest people in the UK – Platt remains remarkably… unknown!
Even the doorman at the reception of the skyscraper that houses Platt’s group headquarters in London seems to be unaware of him, according to the Daily Mail.
His company, the BlueCrest Capital Management, yes. But the boss himself, no.
Even if someone tries to communicate with him even online, he will not succeed.
The company’s website doesn’t even load and the 56-year-old, mysterious Briton Kroos – with an estimated fortune of £14.3 billion – doesn’t respond to emails.
In fact, even when the Times interviewed Platt and BlueCrest co-founder, William Reevesin 2006, they steadfastly refused to be photographed.
People who move in his professional and social environment – such as his long-term girlfriend and the most powerful female fund manager in the world, Leda Bragadescribe Platt as “enigmatic,” a figure rarely seen.
The result of this secrecy is that none of the common mortals in Britain know the name, let alone the face, of Platt….
