Bloomberg – David Bonderman amassed a $3 billion fortune in private equity for sophisticated investors. He’s now selling hedge fund strategies to the masses.
Bonderman, whose TPG Capital has owned companies such as Continental Airlines and retailer J Crew Group Inc., is using a family office that manages a portion of his money — Wildcat Capital Management — to back a startup investment business. Infinity Q Capital Management is offering retail and other investors a version of the hedge fund programs it uses for the billionaire, said James Velissaris, chief investment officer for the new firm.
