Moulton makes shock exit from Alchemy

Jon Moulton has quit Alchemy Partners, the buyout firm he co-founded more than a decade ago.

Moulton is leaving more than a year earlier than planned after a reported falling-out with another senior figure at the private equity company.

He was originally due to leave the mid-market firm next October.

The qualified chartered accountant is famed for his outspoken views which have included taking a swipe at the acountancy profession.
