Name That Macro Fund

Currently sell-side rates trying to make thetransition toHF. Have worked with a few different recruiting firms over this past year and had one recruiter reach out about an opportunity with a fund he is working with and sent me over the details/job description but refused to reveal the fund name...

The position description talked more about the job responsibilities as opposed to the fund description. From the description about the fund the only hints I have are:

"industry-leading global macro hedge fund based in theNYCarea"

"currently manages more than $10 billion in total assets"

"global presence across the US, Asia, and Europe"

$10bn in assets with presence across US, Asia and Europe narrows the list of 'industry-leading' macro funds, though AUM is hard to gauge publicly..In terms of 'industry-leading' macro-funds:

  • Tudor, Baly, MLP: >$30bn AUM

  • Element: no Asia offices to my knowledge

  • Caxton: <$10bn AUM(?)

  • Graham: $17bn AUM, no Asia offices

  • Bridgewater(is ray still 'industry-leading'?): ton more assets than $10bn

My guess is Moore cap, Brevan(?) or MKP

Any other guesses out there based on this little info?

junior2012, what's your opinion? Comment below:

In my experience, if the headhunter doesn't know or won't reveal key details of the role they're trying to sell you on, you should stay far away. To be fair, thats most headhunters though.

Could be so many places and pretty pointless trying to guess. Doubt it's Brevan though. They're effectively London HQed.
