Hedge fund lawyer runs for Congress, anti-big banks
Thursday, November 26, 2009 : PermalinkReuters – Hedge funds are far from popular, but one lawyer thinks Pennsylvania voters will support his calls for banning corporate bailouts, putting an end to “too big to fail” and taking the bulls-eye off fund managers.
Christopher Paige, 38, for the past three years was general counsel for Paige Capital Management, a small New York hedge fund founded by his wife, Michelle, and sister-in-law Jessica. The two women had learned the distressed-debt investing business as analysts for Carl Icahn’s Icahn Associates.
