From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
HBK Investments L.P. is a hedge fund based in Dallas, Texas. As of late 2006, it invests around $12 billion and employs almost 300 individuals. In addition to the main offices in Dallas, the firm maintains satellite offices in New York, London, Tokyo, and Hong Kong.
The firm takes its name from the initials of Harlan B. Korenvaes, former Managing Director of Merrill Lynch in charge of the firm's convertible arbitrage trading and sales. He left Merrill Lynch and founded HBK in October 1991, starting with $30 million capital from four limited partners.
