Hilltop Holdings Inc (HTH)

[Enterprising Investor]

Oak Hill Capital is controled by Robert Bass.

Robert Bass is ranked 74 on the Forbes 400. His uncle, Sid Richardson, was once worth $810 million. He and his three brothers Lee (182), Ed (269), and Sid Bass (182) all attended Yale University. Working together with his brothers at first as Bass Brothers Enterprises and then working independently, Robert Bass made many successful investments through his own firm, the Robert M. Bass Group, later Keystone Inc. In 2004, he started Aerion Corp to develop supersonic corporate jets, which is the beneficiary of lucrative Federal DARPA contracts.

The Bass family has done well (overall) with its investment strategy. Richard Rainwater, with whom Robert Bass attended Stanford Business School, helped turn the family's modest $50 million fortune into one worth upwards of $5 billion after about 15 years working with the family.

The Bass family is noted for their developments in Tarrant County, Texas and their efforts to revitalize an area in downtown Fort Worth called Sundance Square. The Sid Richardson Museum is located there.
