Hedge fund manager UK equivalent?

I posted a questionre top salaries and hedge fund manager tends to be the most popular answer. I wondered if anyone could tell me what the UK equivalent to this is and what degree i need to achieve it?
Any help is greatly appreciated

It'd be the same - hedge fund manager. However, becomming one is much more difficult than your typical entry level job. People will not give you their money to invest if they know nothing about you. Your best bet would be to get an entry level job in a current hedge fund and then work your way up.

As for education, a degree in finance would be fine.
