Joshua Berkowitz, who started hedge-fund firm Woodbine Capital Advisors in 2008, said that the fund failed to yield the high returns that was expected.

The company assets decreased to nearly $400 million from a peak of $3 billion four years ago, according to the publication.

It is not Woodbine Capital Advisors that is returning money to clients, many other New York-based hedge-fund firms have closed in 2014.

In January 2014, Scout Capital Management, the $6.7 billion firm managed by James Crichton and Adam Weiss, said it was shutting after 15 years following Weiss’s decision to cease managing money for investors.
