Sitrick And Company is providing crisis support to Archegos Capital Management, the $10B family investment firm that imploded in mid-March.
The Financial Times called the Archegos bust the biggest financial meltdown since the collapse of Long-Term Capital Management in 1998.
Credit Suisse announced April 6 that it will take a $4.7B charge, slash its dividend and overhaul its investment ranks due to the Archegos disaster.
Founded in 2013 by Bill Hwang, a protege of hedge fund legend Julian Robinson, Archegos borrowed billions to invest in US and Chinese stocks.
