(Reuters) - U.S. hedge fund Elliott Management Corp has dissolved its stake in advertising company Interpublic Group of Companies Inc IPG.N, a regulatory filing showed on Tuesday.

In July 2014, the hedge fund run by Paul Singer said it had bought a 6.7 percent stake in Interpublic. reut.rs/2kR2D8Y

The hedge fund has been reducing its holding in the company gradually since early last year.

A 13-F fling with U.S. regulators on Nov. 14, 2016, showed Elliott held a stake in Interpublic. However, its latest filing on Tuesday did not show any shares held in the company.

Interpublic, whose clients include Johnson & Johnson JNJ.N, Microsoft MSFT.O and Coca-Cola KO.N, posted a better-than-expected quarterly profit on Friday.
