Nominations open for European FoHF awards 2014
Europe's only awards aimed exclusively at fund of hedge funds are now accepting entries. The awards recognise the best FoHFs with a substantial presence in Europe
Europe's funds of hedge funds (FoHFs) industry continues to recover from the aftermath of the financial crisis wth a trend towards more customised and sophisticated bespoke offerings.
Reflecting this changing environment, Hedge Funds Review is launching the 13th Annual European Fund of Hedge Funds Awards 2014.
The European Fund of Hedge Funds Awards remains the only signature event held exclusively for the European fund of hedge fund sector and as such continues to attract the top names from the industry.
The awards recognise the best funds of hedge funds in Europe.
The hedge fund investment process relies on more than just numbers and our judging process recognises this.
The categories for one-year performance focus on specialised FoHF offerings while also offering more broadly specialised and diversified FoHFs awards in long-term performance.
Platforms, a growing part of the European hedge fund industry, are also highlighted with awards for best managed account, best Ucits-compliant and best overall platform. A separate award covers the importance of seeding.
Funds of hedge funds are invited to enter the qualitative categories, which will recognise achievements in product development, innovation, client service and excellence in the industry by both groups and individuals.
Winners will be announced at a black-tie dinner in London on November 20.
More information is available on the European FoHF Awards 2014 website.
To request an entry form, send an email stating which categories you want to enter to Ben Cronin at Ben.Cronin@incisivemedia.com(+44 (0)20 7316 9751).
Entries close September 24, 2014.
