Curious as well
Most of the big distressed funds have guys who will look at claims.
People I’ve seen play in claims oriented situations include Attestor, Centerbridge, Taconic, Elliott, Baupost, King Street, CarVal, Ellington, SVP, Davidson Kempner, Avenue, PIMCO, Beach Point. Probably a few I’m missing but those are a lot of the guys.
