David Ford, a senior analyst and portfolio manager with a background in high-yield bonds, has left Och-Ziff Capital Management and will join another New York-based hedge fund, Satellite Asset Management. Ford will be a partner at the firm. Ford declined comment, and Mark Sonnino, who founded Satellite three years ago with two colleagues from Soros Fund Management, did not return a call. A senior executive at Och-Ziff says the parting was amicable and the firm wishes Ford well. Ford has at least 10 years of experience investing in distressed and high-yield debt, according to the sell-side executive.
