Absolute-Return Magazine's Lawrence Delevingne has compiled an updated list of hedge fund bundlers using the Center for Responsive Politics and a list of fundraisers on BarackObama.com.
Here's a rundown hedge funders who have recently raised money for Obama's campaign.
- Scott Nathan (Baupost Group)
