對沖基金Elliott撤離香港，一來中資難維權，二是香港變了。 #國際金融中心
Elliott’s largest campaigns in Asia include a $2.5bn investment in Japanese technology conglomerate SoftBank, and an ongoing six-year battle with Bank of East Asia, which is controlled by the Hong Kong Li family. These will now be overseen by teams in London and Tokyo, according to a person close to the fund.
Elliott’s decision to move staff from Hong Kong to Tokyo coincides with an ongoing boom in shareholder activism in Japan, and the high-profile successes of several prominent campaigns. In recent months activists have felt emboldened and attempted new tactics: Toshiba was last week forced to take steps to hold an unprecedented double extraordinary general meeting of shareholders later this year after demands from two separate investors.
Then in a historic $1.2bn deal sealed on Monday, real estate giant Mitsui Fudosan completed a tender offer for Tokyo Dome, operator of one of the most famous sporting landmarks in Japan. The deal emerged from a campaign run by Hong Kong-based activist Oasis, which had demanded a wholesale shakeout of Tokyo Dome’s management.
