Ray Dalio says he's not plotting a comeback to Bridgewater, the fund he founded in 1975. Speaking at a Greenwich conference Tuesday, Dalio denied a New York Times report saying he might return. He said he will focus on running his family office and mentoring Bridgewater's leadership team. Dalio is building out his family office with a new office in Abu Dhabi and hiring in its other hubs in the US and Singapore, according to Bloomberg. The world's largest hedge fund is now being run by Nir Bar Dea, who has already shaken up the firm with a restructure and layoffs.
