Eric Mindich: Eton Park Capital Management

Eric Mindich, a former Goldman Sachs partner founded Eton Park Capital Management in November 2004, as a hedge fund that invests in the public and private markets. Up to 30% of the fund can be invested in private market transactions, and investors in the fund generally commit their capital for between three and five years – much longer than the quarterly redemption notices that are usual in many hedge funds.

Since its beginning, Eric Mindich has managed global operations for Eton Park. Alain Demarolle is the managing director for European investments.

In November 2007, the $300 million R6 Capital Management fund and Eton Park Capital announced that R6 would close down its business and transfer its assets to Eton Park. Ralph F. Rosenberg, head of R6, joined Eton Park to work on credit, distressed investing and real estate. On January 1, 2008, the R6 Capital Management team joined Eton Park’s management.

By December 2007, its fund size was over $10 billion. Some of its investments included GMR Infrastructure, Jai Corp, and a 5% stake in Reliance Capital Asset Management which are all Indian corporations.
