The Swiss Alternative Funds Awards recognises outstanding performance and excellence in four categories for single hedge funds and multi-manager funds relevant to Swiss investors. The winners have been named at yesterday’s Swiss Asset Management Day in Pfaeffikon SZ which attracted over 500 participants from the Swiss and international financial community.

The winning funds did pass through a rigorous quantitative and qualitative filter and were finally selected by a jury of designated and experienced industry experts.

"We would like to congratulate the winners for this outstanding achievement within each awards category. Nonetheless, we would also like to congratulate funds that were shortlisted but did not win. Those funds as well belong to the group of highly successful managers," the firm said in a statement.
