Birnam Oak Advisors, LP

Birnam Oak Advisors, LP is an investment advisory firm serving institutional clients. We seek to generate superior risk adjusted returns by exploiting the inefficiencies created by large pools of passive capital, the mechanistic use of “factors”, and other capital flows insensitive to price discovery in the various global asset markets. We make concentrated, event driven investments in merger arbitrage, capital structure arbitrage, legal/regulatory risks, volatility expressions, and highly liquid capture of duration and credit spread. Founded by former Taconic Capital Advisors’ Chief Investment Officer, Christopher DeLong, Birnam Oak was founded in 2023 and began serving clients in 2024.
