Off the top, Bear Stearns bailed out its main hedge fund after it had to liquidate in what ended up being a precursor to the financial crisis. It happens fairly often.

Bear Stearns made investors partially whole... definitely not a bailout because are you point out they owned the GP. It’s actually a horrible example.
