(The Business Insider) A credit trader at the London office of Eric Mindich’s $7 billion New York hedge fund, Eton Park, which said about three months ago that it was shutting down, is looking to open his own firm, three sources with direct knowledge of the matter said.
Two of the sources said Anirudh Singh, 33, expected to raise at least $200 million for the fund, while one source put the potential launch capital at more than $100 million. Singh worked for Eton Park for roughly six years after a stint at Goldman Sachs, documents filed with Britain’s Financial Conduct Authority show. He is not de-registered from the firm.
