About Paul Singer

Hedge fund magnate Paul Singer is known for his high-profile, and often combative, dealmaking.

He founded his hedge fund firm, Elliott Management, in 1977 with $1.3 million. The firm now has some $65 billion in assets under management.

He famously spent 15 years warring with the government of Argentina over bond payments, which resulted in a $2.4 billion payout to his firm in 2016.

Elliott took over beleaguered soccer club AC Milan in 2018 and sold it for $1.2 billion to RedBird Capital Partners in 2022.

Singer frequently donates to Jewish and pro-Israel causes, including BBYO and Hillel. He's given roughly $300 million to his foundation since 2010.
