Pentwater, Farallon, HBK and Taconic are the obvious ones to me. And perhaps also TIG and Magnetar?
Is taconic distressed only or also active on the equities side?
Active in equities
Pentwater the biggest on the street. Would add Hudson Bay, Segantii, DE Shaw
Empyrean
Apollo has a $6BN event fund

No
