Wesley Wong, a Hong Kong-based partner of TPG-Axon Capital Management LP, left his employer of almost nine years as the more than $3 billion New York-based hedge-fund manager consolidates its Asia business.
Keita Arisawa, formerly the company’s “point person” for Japan investments, is moving to Hong Kong from Tokyo to lead the entire Asia business, according to an excerpt from a June 3 newsletter to investors seen by Bloomberg News. Dan Gagnier, a spokesman for the hedge fund at Sard Verbinnen & Co. in New York, declined to comment on the departure.
