Hedge Fund Veteran Investor and Portfolio Manager, Author of Damsel in Distressed - Dominique Mielle

  • Summary

  • Dominique Mielle has spent 20 years as distressed bond investor, partner and senior portfolio manager at Canyon Capital, a $25bn hedge fund. Dominique was one of the very few hedge fund managers in the world when she retired from Canyon in 2018. 

    In her memoir Damsel in Distressed published on September 7, 2021, Dominique offers more than just her insider view into the world of hedge funds – through her memoir, Dominique sets precedence for women who want a career investing and feel there is no way they can break into the boys club which is largely still the finance industry. The first memoir by a woman hedge fund manager, Damsel in Distressed is a witty account of Dominque’s accession through the ranks of hedge fund investing with all its challenges and awkwardness. 

    In this conversation we talk about Dominique’s rise to be Canyon’s first female investment partner, why she wrote her recently published memoir and what is the unwritten message behind it, and the decline of hedge funds.
