Crispin Odey “exhibited pure rage,” and visibly changed “color” during a meeting at his London home, a senior fund manager has alleged, as sexual misconduct allegations and disciplinary proceedings loomed over the founder of Odey Asset Management.

“I’m a 46 year-old man, I have never seen rage like I saw that day,” Oliver Kelton said in a London court on Tuesday, describing the meeting he had with Odey in February 2022. “He had in my mind lost control. It was intimidating.”
