Daniel Och is the Founder of Och-Ziff Capital Management. During his tenure at the firm, Och-Ziff was considered one of the world’s largest hedge fund managers based on assets under his control. It generated an annual gross return well in excess of the S&P 500 Index, representing a cumulative return on initial capital that is multiple times higher than that of the Index. The firm changed its name to Sculptor Capital in 2019 and Och formally cut his ties with the company. He currently oversees Willoughby Capital’s multibillion-dollar portfolio spanning private equity, venture capital, public equity, credit, and real estate.
