Meteora Capital

Meteora Capital

Meteora Capital was formed in 2021 in New York by Vikas Mittal, a CFA charterholder who serves as Managing Member & CIO. The firm has additional offices in Paris and London. Its wealth origin is not publicly disclosed, and the firm is registered as an SEC investment adviser. The firm's strategy centers on event-driven investments in equities and credit, with a particular focus on the SPAC lifecycle — from public warrant and unit trading to private PIPE and de-SPAC financing. Meteora also provides bespoke structured equity and credit facilities to companies seeking alternative capital solutions. The investment team covers multiple asset classes including SPAC-related securities, private credit, structured equity, and event-driven hedge fund strategies. The firm invests its own capital alongside its institutional clients, aligning incentives. Meteora's 18-person team includes a managing member/CIO, a COO/CFO/CCO, directors, senior associates, execution traders, portfolio strategists, investment analysts (including one with an AI focus), and operations and business development staff. The firm maintains offices in New York, Paris, and London. As of 2026, no recent capital raise or major deployment has been publicly reported outside of ongoing vehicle operations. A structural differentiator is Meteora's dual platform: a public-markets hedge fund optimized for event-driven performance with controlled drawdowns, and a long-duration private-markets fund focused on the SPAC ecosystem. This hybrid structure bridges liquid arbitrage with illiquid private placements, a niche that few registered advisers occupy at scale.
