Wildcat Capital Management, founded as the family office of billionaire David Bonderman, has invested more than $200 million with Whitebark Investors, a hedge fund led by Thomas McConnon that was spun out of Wildcat.
“We are very happy with the differentiated returns Tom has generated for Wildcat over the past six years and we are very excited to invest with him going forward,” Wildcat Chief Investment Officer Len Potter said in an emailed statement. He declined to provide returns.
