TOP TEN

We will feature top managers from a different database every month. The list below comes from Managed Futures Europe, a relatively new database that contains 574 programs with combined assets under management of $36 billion. The database has investment programs from all over the world, but the emphasis is on companies trading in Europe. Of the programs, 55% are systematic, 11% are option specialists, 19% are forex traders, and the rest are in other strategies.
