DESCRIPTION:

Date updated:09-30-2008

Polygon Investment Partners LLP is a global private investment firm based in London and New York with over $1.35 billion under management. It is led by Reade Griffith, a Harvard College-trained economics graduate who was previously founder and chief executive of the European office of Citadel Investment Group. Polygon manages a multi-strategy investment fund and invests in a wide range of publicly traded securities. While Polygon enjoys high-profile shareholder battles but, like other hedge funds, keeps a low profile when it comes to other aspects of its business. It is authorized and regulated by the Financial Services Authority.
Reade Griffith:



From Hedge Fund Intelligence:
“Griffith, former head of Citadel's European operation, outlined six key ingredients to building a sustainable hedge fund business: consistency of returns; depth of talent; risk management and use of leverage; robustness of structure; the liquidity of capital matched to strategy durations; and diversity in the investor base.

He noted several intriguing new business developments, including the disintermediation of banks as companies increasingly started to deal directly with hedge funds in a range of innovative capital-raising areas such as convertibles, private equity, debtor-in-possession deals and mezzanine financing.

Griffith described the outlook for his fund's three key strategies - event-driven arbitrage, convertible arbitrage and capital structure/distressed arbitrage - as positive, improving and fair in that order."
