Our strategy

We employ an opportunistic, event-driven approach to finding investments in select strategies while managing individual security and market risks.

Activism icon

Activism

Third Point has a multi-decade track record of advocating for operational or portfolio change to drive long-term shareholder value through engagement with mature, publicly-listed companies.

Venture icon

Venture

We aim to identify companies early in their lifecycle, where we can take a board seat, advise on go-to-market strategy and help founders navigate capital markets as they eventually approach a public listing.

Structured credit icon

Structured Credit

We have invested in structured credit, beginning with a focus on RMBS/CMBS and later extending to almost all forms of loan securitizations.  Our structured credit team also collaborates closely with the credit, venture capital and equities teams.

Corporate credit icon

Corporate Credit

Throughout our history, we have swiftly deployed capital during market dislocations into all types of credit securities, including government bonds, distressed and performing credits, and post-reorganization equities.  We may also choose to participate in distressed workouts or on creditor’s committees.

Event equity icon

Event & Fundamental Equity

Most of our team is sector-focused on event and fundamental equities on both the long and short sides.  An event-driven and value approach helps us identify catalysts in mergers and acquisitions, restructurings, and other special situations that will unlock value.  We also have a long history of short-selling individual securities.
