It originally appeared in Bloomberg Brief | Family Office.<\/em><\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<div\n\tclass=\"bb-wysiwyg\"\n\t\t>\n\t<p>Step inside Table Management, an obscure investment firm in New York, and something strange happens: you\u2019re transported to the rarefied realm of Bill Ackman, the billionaire hedge fund manager.<\/p>\n<p>Table, it turns out, is sort of a secret wrapped in mystery. From the same Manhattan skyscraper as Ackman\u2019s Pershing Square Capital Management, Table handles the personal finances of one client: the boss.<\/p>\n<p>Ackman\u2019s setup might seem unusual in the hedge fund business, where managers stake their fortunes on the funds they oversee for clients.<\/p>\n<p>But a growing number of prominent hedge funders are also quietly cordoning off private enclaves for themselves, often within their big-name firms. Eric Mindich, Dan Och and others have created what are known as single-family offices \u2014 and not everyone is happy about it. Critics say managers should focus on their hedge funds and, in effect, eat their own cooking.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI expect hedge fund managers to be 100 percent invested in their hedge funds,\u201d said Karl Scheer, chief investment officer of the $1.2 billion endowment at the University of Cincinnati. \u201cI prefer that they\u2019re singularly focused in order to achieve the best results.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In some ways the managers are just following a basic rule of investing: diversify. But clients and regulators worry these one-member clubs could raise potential conflicts, ranging from who covers costs for what, to how investments might overlap or collide.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"\" class=\"wpb_content_element bbg-single-image align-center\">\n    <figure class=\"bbg-single-image__figure\" style=\"max-width:100%\">\n                <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1067\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/image\/v1\/resize?width=auto&amp;type=webp&amp;url=https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/professional\/sites\/10\/imported\/professional\/sites\/4\/220451852.jpg\" class=\"bbg-single-image__image attachment-full\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/image\/v1\/resize?width=auto&amp;type=webp&amp;url=https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/professional\/sites\/10\/imported\/professional\/sites\/4\/220451852.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/image\/v1\/resize?width=auto&amp;type=webp&amp;url=https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/professional\/sites\/10\/imported\/professional\/sites\/4\/220451852.jpg 552w, https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/image\/v1\/resize?width=auto&amp;type=webp&amp;url=https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/professional\/sites\/10\/imported\/professional\/sites\/4\/220451852.jpg 800w, https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/image\/v1\/resize?width=auto&amp;type=webp&amp;url=https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/professional\/sites\/10\/imported\/professional\/sites\/4\/220451852.jpg 360w, https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/image\/v1\/resize?width=auto&amp;type=webp&amp;url=https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/professional\/sites\/10\/imported\/professional\/sites\/4\/220451852.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/>\n        \n                <figcaption class=\"bbg-single-image__caption\" style=\"text-align: left\">\n                Photographer: Andrew Harrer\/Bloomberg \n        <\/figcaption>\n            <\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div\n\tclass=\"bb-wysiwyg\"\n\t\t>\n\t<p>At the very least, the lines can get blurry. Table, for instance, invested in Sprout Pharmaceuticals, maker of the first pill to aid women\u2019s sex drive. No sooner was the drug approved in August than Sprout was acquired by Valeant Pharmaceuticals International Inc., a firm that Ackman, from his perch at Pershing,\u00a0had championed during a hostile-takeover showdown.<\/p>\n<p>Family offices have been around since the days of John D. Rockefeller. But the business has exploded in an era of hyper-wealth on Wall Street, in Silicon Valley and beyond. Private equity titans such as Leon Black and David Bonderman have set them up, too. The firms handle all sorts of affairs, from taxes to philanthropy to maintaining homes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is possibly a new era of family offices,\u201d said Jamie McLaughlin, a Darien, Connecticut-based adviser to wealth management firms.<\/p>\n<p>Ackman started Table four years ago so he could focus on managing Pershing, a person with knowledge of his thinking said. The family firm grew out of investments Ackman did with his father and now has a team of about five, including CIO Greg Lyss, who worked for Ackman at his first fund; and President Andrea Markezin, who previously worked at the family office of the Sulzberger family, which controls the New York Times Co.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to Sprout, Ackman has invested in startups including Relationship Science, an online professional-networking firm; PlaySight Interactive, a tennis analytics company; and Nitrous, a cloud-computing firm. But most of Table\u2019s investments are in real estate, including a $91.5 million penthouse in Manhattan.<\/p>\n<p>Mindich, founder of Eton Park Capital Management, created Everblue Management last October. To run it, he hired Kerrie Juras Ferrentino, who previously worked with the family office of the Dolans, the New York clan behind Cablevision. It\u2019s unclear if Everblue has made any investments.<\/p>\n<p>Och, who runs Och-Ziff Capital Management Group LLC, set up his Willoughby Capital Management in 2009. It\u2019s run by Morgan Rutman, a former hedge fund manager. The CIO, Mira Muhtadie, previously worked in private equity and oversees investments including venture capital and art.<\/p>\n<p>Paul Tudor Jones has been diversifying beyond his Tudor Investment Corp. since the late 1980s. His Jones Family Office, with locations in Greenwich, Connecticut, and Palm Beach, Florida, is run by Mikael Andren, who previously worked in private equity. The firm\u2019s investments include Singita, an eco-tourism company in Africa; Reykjavik Geothermal, an Icelandic clean-energy company; and trading firms Castleton Commodities and Engineers Gate.<\/p>\n<p>Single-family offices are even more loosely regulated than hedge funds, and there are few requirements about what they must disclose publicly. Some worry that these parallel operations could create conflicts.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"\" class=\"wpb_content_element bbg-single-image align-center\">\n    <figure class=\"bbg-single-image__figure\" style=\"max-width:100%\">\n                <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1065\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/image\/v1\/resize?width=auto&amp;type=webp&amp;url=https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/professional\/sites\/10\/imported\/professional\/sites\/4\/224655962.jpg\" class=\"bbg-single-image__image attachment-full\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/image\/v1\/resize?width=auto&amp;type=webp&amp;url=https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/professional\/sites\/10\/imported\/professional\/sites\/4\/224655962.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/image\/v1\/resize?width=auto&amp;type=webp&amp;url=https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/professional\/sites\/10\/imported\/professional\/sites\/4\/224655962.jpg 552w, https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/image\/v1\/resize?width=auto&amp;type=webp&amp;url=https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/professional\/sites\/10\/imported\/professional\/sites\/4\/224655962.jpg 800w, https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/image\/v1\/resize?width=auto&amp;type=webp&amp;url=https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/professional\/sites\/10\/imported\/professional\/sites\/4\/224655962.jpg 360w, https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/image\/v1\/resize?width=auto&amp;type=webp&amp;url=https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/professional\/sites\/10\/imported\/professional\/sites\/4\/224655962.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/>\n        \n                <figcaption class=\"bbg-single-image__caption\" style=\"text-align: left\">\n                Photographer: Craig Warga\/Bloomberg\n        <\/figcaption>\n            <\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div\n\tclass=\"bb-wysiwyg\"\n\t\t>\n\t<p>What if a manager\u2019s family firm invests in a small company that grows into one in which the hedge fund wants to invest? In-house family offices, which share office space and amenities, are particularly irksome. Who pays expenses for research and support staff? Like Tudor, some of Jones\u2019s family-office ventures trade commodities and use computer-driven strategies.<\/p>\n<p>Mindich\u2019s Everblue and the family office of Ray Dalio, who runs Bridgewater Associates, are housed in the same buildings as their funds. Like Ackman, Mindich and Dalio cover the costs of running their family firms, people with knowledge of the matter said.<\/p>\n<p>By contrast, Och has put some distance \u2014 literally \u2014 between his New York fund and family office, which is based 30 miles north of the city in White Plains.<\/p>\n<p>Spokesmen for Eton Park, Och-Ziff and Tudor declined to comment on the potential for conflicts between the two sides.<\/p>\n<p>Regulators are taking note. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission is trying to assess risks associated with the growth of family offices.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDiversifying from the fund is not a problem, but we want to make sure that if there\u2019s an overlap of investments, it\u2019s disclosed in a timely manner to investors,\u201d said Jennifer Duggins, who co-runs the SEC\u2019s private funds unit.<\/p>\n<p>Over at Pershing, Ackman disclosed his holding in Sprout on Aug. 26, six days after Valeant said it was buying the company. In a report to clients, Ackman said the holding marked only the second time he\u2019d invested in a private firm that was subsequently bought by a company in which Pershing has a stake. (Pershing wouldn\u2019t have invested in Sprout because it only takes stakes in publicly traded securities.)<\/p>\n<p>Ackman also said in the report that his hedge fund has strict policies governing potential conflicts. Employees aren\u2019t allowed to invest in publicly traded equity or debt securities other than U.S. Treasuries, money markets and municipal bonds. Nearly all employees have most of their liquid net worth tied up in Pershing funds, though they aren\u2019t encouraged to put 100 percent in, Ackman said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEmployees that are \u2018overinvested\u2019 in the funds may lose the dispassionate economic rationality that is essential for sound investment judgment, particularly in times of market stress,\u201d Ackman wrote.<\/p>\n<p>A spokesman for Ackman declined to comment for this story.<\/p>\n<p>At Fortress Investment Group LLC, four executives have family offices based within the New York-based firm. One of them, Red Lion, handles the affairs of Michael Novogratz and another principal. (Novogratz is set to leave Fortress at the end of the year after liquidating his hedge fund.) Their staffs became employees of Fortress three years ago, according to a filing.<\/p>\n<p>The executives reimburse Fortress for compensation, benefits and other expenses, spokesman Gordon Runte said. They are barred from investing in the same areas as their funds, unless they can show that their stakes have no impact on the funds, he said.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, however, such steps may not be enough to eliminate all conflicts, real or perceived. Most investors trust their money managers and don\u2019t check on potential conflicts, said Daniel Celeghin, a partner at Casey Quirk &amp; Associates, a Darien, Connecticut-based adviser to asset managers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cManagers self-police, so it largely comes down to trust,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<div\n\tclass=\"bb-wysiwyg\"\n\t\t>\n\t<p>View the entire <em><a
