Elliott Management has welcomed the business strategy BHP Billiton has adopted since the US hedge fund began lobbying for a restructuring of the resources group. The activist investor has disclosed that it has become a substantial shareholder, with direct ownership of five per cent of BHP’s London-listed shares. It previously had exposure to BHP via derivatives. Elliott also has an 0.5 per cent economic interest in BHP’s Australian-listed shares.
