Eton Park Capital Management LP
Eton Park Capital Management LP Investment ManagersFinance Eton Park Capital Management employs a wide range of investment strategies in managing fund assets, which may include, but are not limited to: Fundamental Long/Short; Event-Oriented; Credit and Distressed Debt; Asset-Backed and Structures Credit; and Derivatives. Eton Park's Fundamental Long/Short strategies purchase securities they believe are undervalued or selling short securities that they believe are overpriced. The firm's Event-Oriented strategies seek to exploit situations in which an announced or anticipated event creates pricing inefficiencies. Their Credit and Distressed Debt strategies seek to generate capital appreciation or otherwise generate income mainly by investing in credit and credit-related instruments or obligations, both long and short, across a company's capital structure. Eton Park's Asset-Backed and Structured Credit strategies invest in instruments that are generally securitized, such as RMBS, CMBS and other ABS and CDOs that may have underlying assets, such as trust preferred securities (TruPS), aircraft leases, mutual fund fees, and other assets. The firm's Derivative strategies are used to express fundamental investment views; to hedge positions or hedge or adjust market exposure; or to profit from derivatives transactions generally. Eton Park's open-ended Global Funds' strategies include: fundamental long/short; event-oriented; credit, distressed credit, structured credit and asset-backed financing instruments and arbitrage; capital structure arbitrage; volatility trading/arbitrage; derivatives trading/arbitrage; investments in commodities and other physical assets; private investments; convertible instruments and arbitrage; statistical arbitrage; currency trading and arbitrage; interest rate investing and arbitrage; investments in real estate and real estate-related assets; investments in or related to intellectual property; and the assumption or transfer of risks relating to various catastrophic events. The funds are not limited by geography or instrument. Eton Park's Emerging Markets Funds and Credit funds are no longer making new investments. The Credit Funds made investments primarily in TruPS, CDOs (including, but not limited to, insurance TruPS, REIT TruPS and bank TruPS), and related instruments (including, but not limited to, the underlying assets of such TruPS CDOs). The Emerging Markets Funds made investments in private and illiquid investments in emerging markets using a variety of instruments. | Gestionnaire de Portefeuille-Actions | - |
