Attestor Capital

Pretty secretive. Website tells you jack shit, but on bbg they’ve got some articles that allude to their positions and tag them as a distressed debt hedge fund. looks like about a decade old and tough to tell pedigree beyond ex CarVal and DB Distressed folk back when DB was supposedly the best in Europe pre-crisis. Haven’t heard of reputation or how the big global distressed players view them.

Almost amusing when you see HF websites with a logo (usually says a leading alternative asset manager) and a link for investor portals at best. Wonder if they're doing it to avoid scrutiny on team members (most PE places list this) and anything else they feel would be too revealing. Always wondered a bit about this excluding multimanagers

I feel like if everyone knows you’re legit and reputable then it’s fine having a blank website etc. but I don’t get when small no name funds do this. isn’t it in your favor to try to get the word out and market yourself until you reach that legit status within the investing community. like no one cares about Baupost’s website and it would be fine if they just had a blank page.

I mean at the end of the day it’s whatever but I don’t really see a downside with having more info on your strategy and team etc. (for poaching it’s all on their LinkedIn anyways). unless you’re like Aurelius or doing some shit normal people think is dicey idk
