The story
Eton Park was founded in 2004 by Eric Mindich, who previously had been a partner at Goldman Sachs. While at Goldman, Mindich was a senior member of its Principal Strategies group. Eton Park's launch was one of the largest in history at $3.5 billion.
On March 23, 2017, Mindich announced the fund would shut down after incurring a 10% loss in 2016.
