EVENT-FOCUSED & VALUE-ORIENTED
“Difficulty is the excuse history never accepts.”
Edward P. Murrow
Our Story
Karim Mawji founds Dentonia Park Capital Management, building on the strategy he began developing in 2004 while managing a portfolio on the Morgan Stanley proprietary trading desk.
What began as an event-driven strategy evolved into a leadership-focused approach, recognizing the CEO, management team, and board as decisive drivers of long-term performance.
Karim launches Paragon Intel, a fintech research firm built to systematically evaluate CEOs, boards, and governance.
Paragon Intel becomes a research partner to 80 of the world’s top 100 hedge funds, proving that leadership insight can be scaled, quantified, and predictive.
The research approach and processes Karim institutionalized at Paragon Intel came to form the foundation of Eagle Talon’s CEO Change Strategy.
Karim and his daughter, Ashira Mawji, found Eagle Talon Partners, unifying two decades of leadership analysis and disciplined portfolio construction with quantitative precision.
The firm’s Quantamental Event strategies integrate leadership intelligence with financial analytics and earnings events — creating a differentiated framework for assessing CEO fit and company potential.
Eagle Talon launches dedicated CEO Change strategies, grounded in Karim's leadership-driven philosophy and using institutional processes he developed at Paragon Intel.
The firm’s disciplined approach resonates with family offices and sophisticated investors seeking uncorrelated, cycle-resilient returns driven by real-world leadership quality, not market narratives.
Eagle Talon operates with conviction in a simple but decisive principle: Leadership drives outcomes.
The firm’s G-Leadership strategies combine fundamental research, investigative diligence, and proprietary intelligence to identify the right leader, in the right seat, at the right time — and invest where leadership fit and company potential converge.
When Ashira and her brother Daelum were growing up, their father, Karim, shared a line rooted in an old piece of battle wisdom:
“An eagle can break a wolf’s back with one strike.”
It was a reminder that real strength comes from clarity, patience, and timing — not noise or force.
It became part of their family’s mythology, shaping squash matches, school challenges, and how the kids learned to confront setbacks. They learned to rise above distractions, see the full landscape, and act when the moment was right.
That same philosophy anchors our identity.
The eagle represents how we strive to invest:
➤ seeing the whole field of view,
➤ separating signal from noise,
➤ and striking only when conviction is highest.
The “Partners” in our name reflects something deeper.
It honors everyone who chooses to build with us — clients, collaborators, and each other. Partnership is our center of gravity. Without it, as Karim often says, “existence is futile.”
Eagle Talon is more than a name.
It’s the lens through which we evaluate decisions, leadership, and risk — with clarity from above, discipline in the moment, and respect for the people who journey with us.
