Elliott London departures

Hi all,

In this morning's Due Diligence (FT newsletter) there's a segment on departures from Elliott in London - quite a few PMs across public equity, privates, real estate. Anyone has any idea what's going on? There's very little context obviously, but it doesn't seem to be performance driven (I was under the impression they were doing quite well in Europe, and with the cycle turning as it has, they should have quite a bit of work to do these days).

 

Yes, they're ran from the US ofc, Singer's son runs the London office though and they have pretty large autonomy for Europe and Asia (Asian office closed and moved ops to London).

Don't agree with your 2nd point: they've been quite active around here in equity activism and they're a key player in large-cap distressed. While I agree the latter hasn't been that prolific in the past 10-12 years, why would you start firing now when the cycle is finally turning?

 Not really, what campaigns in equities in Europe have they run in the past year? Can’t remember any at all.
