April 23 (Reuters) – Ken Griffin’s Citadel has pushed back against Zohran Mamdani after the New York Mayor recently filmed a video in front of the billionaire investor’s penthouse, titled “Happy Tax Day, New York. We’re taxing the rich.”
“We understand that our hard work and success will, on occasion, make us targets for political rhetoric. But it should not diminish the pride we take in building firms that will continue to help New York City thrive for decades ahead,” Citadel Chief Operating Officer Gerald Beeson said in an internal memo seen by Reuters.
