Laxman Pai, Opalesque Asia: The investment advisory firm Canterbury Consulting, which oversees more than $18.3bn, is setting up a fund of hedge funds for its clients.
The consultant announced in a press release that it is working with New York-based hedge fund and alternative asset manager EnTrustPermal to create a custom hedge fund-of-funds solution for its clients.
The custom solution for Canterbury Consulting's clients will be launched in February of 2019, it said.
"Canterbury's engagement with EnTrustPermal will allow Canterbury to offer to its clients a custom hedge fund of funds solution without the inherent conflict of having its own product, a relatively new concept in the alternative investment and investment advisory space," it said.
"Customized funds such as this allow for greater transparency and control than many hedge fund of funds solutions in the marketplace today," said Debashis Chowdhury, president of Canterbury Consulting.
"In addition, they provide deeper resources for our clients to access. We believe our clients will get the best of both worlds: the benefit of a custom, tailored solution while having the comfort of knowing we, their advisor, are not conflicted," he added.
With 11 offices globally, EnTrustPermal offers investment solutions through customized portfolios, co-investments, direct investments and established funds across alternative strategies including diversified, strategy focused and opportunistic.
