A group of high-profile investors who got rich buying up distressed assets have found their latest turnaround project: Donald Trump’s campaign.

The Republican presidential nominee last week announced his team of economic advisers, calling the 14 men a "formidable group of experienced and talented individuals." The group, including nine drawn from real estate and finance, will help shape Trump's policies on trade, jobs, regulation and taxes.
