History
Founded by Paul Singer in 1977 with $1.3 million, the firm initially focused on convertible arbitrage. Following the 1987 stock market crash and early 1990s recession, it transitioned into a multi-strategy hedge fund and gained a reputation for distressed debt investing and sovereign debt litigation. The firm moved its headquarters from New York City to West Palm Beach, Florida, in 2020.
