Citadel
Citadel Investment Group LLC is a multi-billion dollar hedge fund, founded by Kenneth Griffin in 1990. The company deploys its capital across a highly diversified set of proprietary investment strategies in nearly all major asset classes.
Since its founding, Citadel has grown into one of the world's largest and most sophisticated alternative investment firms.
Citadel employs more than one thousand professionals with location in Chicago, New York, San Francisco, London, Hong Kong and Tokyo.

Citadel also made headlines in late 2007 after making a $2.5 billion cash infusion in E*Trade Financial (Nasdaq: ETFC), which was in trouble due to its subprime mortgage exposure.
