Elliott Investment Management

Elliott Investment Management is a global investment firm founded by Paul Singer and co-led by Singer and Jonathan Pollock, who share the chief executive and chief investment officer roles. Elliott invests across stocks, corporate debt, distressed securities, private equity, private credit and other markets. Its approach often involves trying to influence an outcome through negotiations, shareholder campaigns or restructurings. That makes it both an investor and an active participant in corporate change. Public equity positions represent only part of a broader business that also pursues opportunities in debt and private companies.

Context Elliott's NML Capital was a leading holdout in Argentina's sovereign-debt dispute. It rejected earlier bond exchanges and sought payment through the courts, a strategy Argentina's government fiercely criticized. Argentina paid the settling holdout creditors in 2016 after raising money in the bond market. The episode became a prominent example of the tensions between creditor enforcement and sovereign debt restructuring.
