About Daniel Och

Dan Och founded Och-Ziff Capital Management, now a publicly traded hedge fund firm, in 1994.

Och stepped down as chairman in 2019 after years of client withdrawals and no longer has a role with the hedge fund.

The firm changed its name to Sculptor Capital Management in August 2019, further cutting its ties with its founder.

Och now runs his family office, Willoughby Capital, a growth equity investor with a portfolio that includes Robinhood, Coinbase and Instacart.

Och has given more than $500 million to his charitable foundation, according to available tax filings.

Och, a longtime New Yorker, switched his residency to Miami Beach, Florida in late 2019.
