Picking the name Fortress for an investment group was no doubt intended to give the impression of solidity. Investors are now discovering another unfortunate connotation: the hedge-fund firm has suspended redemptions and their money is trapped in its vaults.rnIt is not alone. Tudor Investment, Citadel, D.E. Shaw and Farallon Capital Management are among the other big hedge-funds to have restricted the right of investors to withdraw their money.rnThese firms are among the aristocracy of the industry.

Some groups were also branching out into other activities, such as private equity and investment banking.
