Opalesque Industry Updates - Gottex Fund Management Holdings Limited (Gottex), a leading independent global
alternative asset management group, announces its preclose trading statement for the year
ended 31 December 2009.
Highlights:
Commenting, Joachim Gottschalk, Chairman and CEO, stated: “As a result of the positive performance, we have seen increased interest by institutional investors into hedge funds in recent months and we expect to see solid inflows for the industry as the year progresses. Some of the less liquid strategies such as relative value and convertible arbitrage did extremely well in 2009 and the environment remains good for 2010. We believe these will attract additional allocations from institutional investors this year. “Finally, I am delighted that Ted Wong, CEO and founder of Constellar, has decided to join Gottex. We believe it reflects well on Gottex that people of Ted’s calibre want to join our firm and integrate their existing business with us. We expect that in these times of consolidation there will be a number of smaller quality firms looking for an institutional asset management platform with strong investment processes to grow their business as institutional investors continue to raise the bar in terms of investment resources, risk management, infrastructure and transparency.” Corporate website: www.gottexfunds.com - FG |
