EuroHedge award goes to Dutch Savin Multi-Strategy Arbitrage Fund

Wednesday, March 23, 2022

Matthias Knab, Opalesque for New Managers:

Privium Fund Management announced that the Savin Multi-Strategy Arbitrage Fund won the prestigious Eurohedge 2021 award in the category 'new fund of the year - macro, fixed income & relative value. The EuroHedge awards are solely based on a combination of both absolute and risk-adjusted returns. Receiving the award reflects the outperformance of the Savin Multi-Strategy Arbitrage Fund versus its peer group.

The Savin Multi-Strategy Arbitrage Fund was launched in February 2021, after receiving commitments to invest in access of USD 25 million and after signing up with ABN AMRO Clearing as the prime broker.

In the pursuit for absolute and uncorrelated returns, Savin specializes in arbitrage strategies.

The target return of the fund is on average >8% per annum, net of fees. During 2021 most of the returns came from the fund's volatility strategies. The rise of SPAC's as a new asset class also presented the fund with novel arbitrage opportunities. On the back of a net return of more than 24%, since the launch of the fund (as of February 28, 2022), the fund AUM has grown to USD 85 million.

Live presentation available

Savin Fund Management's Managing Director Bass Emmerig explained the fund's strategy at a recent Opalesque SKILLSLAB Webinar "Small Managers - BIG ALPHA - Episode 7".
