Overview

Glazer Capital, LLC is a New York-based hedge fund specializing in event-driven and arbitrage investment strategies. Founded in 1999 by Paul J. Glazer, the firm has grown to approximately $2 billion in assets under management as of November 1, 2025. Glazer Capital focuses on generating absolute returns across all market environments, employing a research-driven approach to identify mispriced securities that can generate alpha for their clients. The firm's investment strategies include long/short equity, distressed debt, and risk arbitrage. The firm's investment approach is guided by its deep expertise in arbitrage and focuses on risk management. Glazer Capital employs a team of experienced professionals who seek to deliver consistent, attractive risk-adjusted returns by identifying investment opportunities arising from corporate events such as mergers and acquisitions, restructurings, and other catalyst-driven situations. The firm emphasizes a commitment to excellence and transparency in its operations and client relationships. In November 2024, Glazer Capital expanded its investment team with the addition of Richard Payman, a former Director at European investment bank Berenberg, who specializes in European M&A and event-driven situations. Mr. Payman is based in Glazer Capital's recently established London office, indicating the firm's international reach in the investment landscape. This expansion reflects Glazer Capital's dedication to enhancing its capabilities in the European market and its commitment to delivering value for its investors through a global perspective.
