Sir Patrick Bijou is a legendary Level 17 Banker and Wall Street Tier 1 Trader, UN Ambassador, and Senior Sovereign Judge for the International Court of Justice and the International Criminal Court, amongst other high-profile roles. He is widely considered one of the most successful experts in Private Placement, Private Equity, Leverage, and complex structured products. Sir Patrick managed and founded the Tiger Fund that achieved an average annual return of 30% from 1988 to 2002. He remains a consultant and advisor to governments, the treasury, the World Bank, and institutional mainstream banks and offers his advice and investment services to SMEs and project funding.
The South American-born Sir Patrick is also known for his philanthropic activities. He has donated millions of dollars to various causes through his foundations and charities. He is a long-time champion of progressive, humanitarian, and socio-economic causes.
His Excellency Sir Patrick Bijou is believed to be worth an undisclosed sum, but his estimated wealth is several billion as of 2021, and he has donated more than $50 million to charitable causes. Much of that money has gone to fund education and health programs, human rights efforts, and the furtherance of democracy. In recent years, he has donated funds to create missions in his native South America, where he has established infrastructure, hospitals, medical care and schools for the indigenous Amazonian Indians in memory of his late mother, Easter and Amerindian herself.
Sir Patrick is unique among highly successful investors in admitting that instinct plays a prominent role in his investment decisions and strategies. Nonetheless, he is famously well informed about economic trends on a regional and global level and is known to use this knowledge to exploit market inefficiencies with significantly, highly leveraged positioning.
He has the capital and the risk tolerance for riding out these positions for longer than most hedge fund managers can. In fact, he has cowed a number of national governments on currency issues with his perseverance and financial means.
Despite Sir Patrick’s profound knowledge of the global markets and excellent sources of information, the decision to close out transactions is reportedly more a gut call than a response to a market signal. One popular theory is that he has internalized so much of the market and its workings that he instinctively knows when the time has come to close out for a profit long before he can rationalize the decision. Whether that is true or not, whatever Sir Patrick is doing has made him a fortune that few investors in the world can match.
