I work in risk arb. There is about $100bn in total AUM running risk arb across 100 shops/pods in the US + 20 or so shops in Western Europe. There are about 50 sell-side shops with risk arb coverage in the US, not sure about Europe.
Funds really don't disclose there performance but in the States big boys include
- MLP / Citadel / Balyasny / DE Shaw pods - MLP alone runs 10+ risk arb pods across US and Europe. not sure about the other ones
- Pentwater
- TIG
- Davidson Kempner
- Bardin Hill
- A bunch of others that I'll probably remember at another time
I spoke with the Paulson and PSAM head PMs a few months ago. Paulson at least don't really do risk arb anymore. John is older now and likes to focus on catalytic eventy names with big upside.
Thank you so much! Do you mind if I PM you?
