  • Ray Dalio says he's not plotting a comeback to Bridgewater, the fund he founded in 1975.
  • Speaking at a Greenwich conference Tuesday, Dalio denied a New York Times report saying he might return. 
  • He said he will focus on running his family office and mentoring Bridgewater's leadership team.

Ray Dalio says he's focusing on running his own billions since leaving Bridgewater Associates last October.

His plan after handing the reins to the current management team is to mentor them while running his family office, which recently hired Mark Baumgartner, chief investment officer of non-profit Carnegie.
