After recent acquisition, Euromoney ditches MARHedge, last edition to be published on November 20th, hedge fund media further consolidates

Friday, November 10, 2006

After the recent acquisition of Metal Bulletin plc, the mother company of MARHedge, to Euromoney, the acquiring company decided to stop publishing MARHedge.

MARHedge was founded in 1979 by Leon & Joy Rose as Managed Account Reports (MAR) in order to serve the nascent managed futures industry. In 1994, the firm launched MARHedge as the first monthly publication dedicated to serving the hedge fund community. That same year, MARHedge launched the first Annual International Conference on Hedge Fund Investments in Bermuda. The Bermuda conference became the world's largest and most important conference focusing exclusively on the hedge fund market. Most recently, MARHedge launched the “MAPAs”, a hedge fund award based on performance, in New York and London, together with Allenbridge and Allenbridge Hedgeinfo and Schmidt Research Partners.

Sources told Opalesque that most likely, MARHedge subscribers will receive a choice of Euromoney/Hedgefundintelligence (Eurohedge etc.)/InstitutionalInvestor subscriptions, the MARHedge conferences will be continued and organized by the New York office of Institutional Investor.

I (Matthias Knab) have been working with MARHedge as a media sponsor since the start of Opalesque in February 2003. I have immensely enjoyed getting to know and work with MARHedge staff. I hope there will be a way for each one of the excellent and dedicated team to continue their work and remain in our industry.
