Founded in 1995 by Timothy Barakett, Atticus Capital was a major global investment management firm known for its activist and event-driven investment strategies. At its peak in 2007, the firm managed approximately $20 billion in assets, making it one of the largest hedge funds in the world. The firm was highly regarded for its deep research and significant stakes in public companies. In August 2009, following the global financial crisis, Barakett announced the closure of the firm's main funds, citing a desire to spend more time with his family and return capital to investors.
