TPS Capital was earlier accused of having connections with Three Arrows Capital through its OTC desk. According to sources, TPS capital was once referred to as “the official OTC service of Three Arrows Capital,” on Linkedin and was claimed to have been independently managed by Three Arrows Capital.
In response to the growing uproar, TPS Capital issued a statement clarifying its stance, adding that the firm is an independent legal entity and its operations are separate from that of Three Arrows Capital.

The firm had agreed that it had briefly connected with 3AC and had merely “acted as an agent with respect to the loans between lenders and 3AC.”
However, TPS’s executive Stefan Chu’s sudden decision to leave the firm has been drawing considerable attention and scrutiny presently. While the firm has been denying its association with Three Arrows Capital, it was earlier found that certain versions of the regular research reports produced by Chu while he was working with TPS referred to the firm as the “official OTC desk for Three Arrows Capital.”
In addition to this, the Block further reiterated that the TPS staff used to describe their employer as the “OTC desk of 3AC” while sending emails to their clients.
