About Me

Scott Shleifer cofounded Tiger Global Management's private equity investing arm in 2003, two years after Chase Coleman founded the hedge fund firm. Tiger Global's venture funds now make up the bulk of the firm's $50 billion in net assets under management. Shleifer made lucrative bets on several Chinese tech companies for Tiger, including JD.com, ride-hailing app Didi Chuxing and e-commerce giant Meituan. Shleifer stepped down as Tiger Global's head of private equity at the start of 2024, transitioning to a role as senior advisor. He bought a 21,000-square-foot Palm Beach mansion in 2021 for $123 million.
