Investor Details
Harbinger Capital Partners is a private hedge fund based in New York City, specializing in event-driven and distressed investment strategies. Founded in 2001 by Philip Falcone, the firm focuses on generating alpha through investments that are uncorrelated to traditional market cycles. Its portfolio includes a diverse range of assets across various industries, including technology, media, telecommunications, and energy.
The firm's investment approach is characterized by a flexible and innovative strategy, seeking opportunities in both public and private markets. Harbinger Capital Partners has been involved in significant investments such as sub-prime mortgages in the United States and the United Kingdom, as well as in companies like LightSquared, a wireless communications firm that filed for bankruptcy in 2012. The firm has also held substantial stakes in entities like The New York Times Company and Inmarsat, a satellite communications company.
Over the years, Harbinger Capital Partners has faced legal challenges, including a 2012 SEC fraud charge against founder Philip Falcone for misappropriation of client assets and market manipulation. Despite these challenges, the firm continues to operate, focusing on its investment strategies and portfolio management. As of 2025, Harbinger Capital Partners remains active in the investment landscape, managing assets across multiple sectors and stages of investment.
