Millennium Management is in talks to sell a minority stake in its management company, in a deal that values the hedge fund giant at $14 billion, the Financial Times reported on Monday, citing people familiar with the discussions.

The company is working with Goldman Sachs’ Petershill Partners to identify potential buyers for a 10% to 15% equity stake in its management company, the report said.

Millennium and Petershill declined to comment.

The company is led by billionaire Israel Englander, who founded it in 1989 with $35 million in capital.
