Multi-millionaire hedge fund boss Martin Taylor who handed £600,000 to the Labour party . A multi-millionaire hedge fund boss who handed £600,000 to the Labour party , also stands to cash in from the privatisation of NHS services . Martin Taylor was unveiled last week as the generous benefactor who has become the party ’ s fourth largest donor over the past three years . Ed Miliband , who has had at least one private meeting with him , has attacked the Conservatives for being ‘ the party of Mayfair hedge funds ’ , the exclusive part of London where Mr Taylor ’ s firm is based . And yesterday it emerged that Mr Taylor ’ s company , Nevsky Capital , advises a fund with a £10million stake in United Health , an American private healthcare giant which has run NHS-funded GP surgeries and is bidding for health service contracts . Tory MPs accused Mr Miliband of being a ‘ hypocrite ’ for taking his money after Labour have hit out at NHS ‘ privatisation ’ under the Coalition and claimed they would prevent it if they win office . United Health UK , its arm in this country , has run a number of GP surgeries over the past few years . But the firm was fined tens of millions of dollars in the USA for allegations it over-charged patients . It is also bidding for other NHS work including a controversial £1.2billion contract for cancer and end-of-life care in Staffordshire and Stoke on Trent , described as the health service ’ s biggest ever privatisation . The deal - for which a number of other private companies including Richard Branson ’ s Virgin Care Ltd are also bidding - has been opposed by Labour ’ s Andy Burnham who said all private contracts should be halted until after the General Election . The Nevsky Fund , managed by Mr Taylor ’ s firm , is based in the Cayman Islands , a secretive tax haven where investors can protect their identities and can avoid paying tax on the hedge fund ’ s profits . There is no suggestion Mr Taylor - who has said he is domiciled in the UK - or his investors have avoided tax . Tory MPs have accused Ed Miliband of being a ‘ hypocrite ’ for taking money from hedge fund boss Martin Taylor . Mr Taylor told the Sunday Times it might seem ‘ a bit odd ’ for a hedge fund manager to support Labour but he believed that ‘ everyone should contribute to society and that those who are lucky enough to earn a lot should contribute more. ’ Last week Labour faced allegations it had tried to cover up his identity , after it emerged a newspaper had first asked about his identity several months ago . He has given £591,800 since 2012 . Parties are required to identify all donors who have given more than £7,500 , but because only the person ’ s name is given it can be difficult to identify those with common names such as Mr Taylor . The party issued a statement from him last week , saying : ‘ There is no mystery . This ‘ Martin Taylor is me ’ . I am a born and bred Londoner , who also happens to be a hedge fund manager . And I am proud to support the Labour party. ’ A Labour spokesman said yesterday : ‘ We are grateful to people from all walks of life who support the Labour Party and our better plan . Unlike David Cameron and the Conservatives who increasingly rely on the money of an exclusive group of donors – the same people who they have rewarded with tax breaks - Ed Miliband will enter Downing Street owing nothing to anybody . ’
