With over $900 million in assets under management, the firm's actively managed global event- driven investment strategy and investment team remains unchanged under the new brand. Kryger Capital's focus is to deliver absolute returns regardless of the market environment by targeting equities and equity-related securities of companies undergoing significant corporate actions and other hard catalyst events.

Kryger Capital's longstanding management team is led by John Melsom, who brings over 20 years' investment experience trading events across North America, Europe, and Asia.

John Melsom, Chief Investment Officer at Kryger Capital, said: "The launch of Kryger Capital as an independent brand is a natural progression and hugely positive for the long-term prospects of our business. We have built a strong track record of investor returns through varied market conditions and multiple economic cycles, with the support of a first-class team and a dynamic approach to risk management."

The firm's leadership team also includes Rahul Patel, Head of Research & Trading, and Stephen Hill, Chief Operating Officer & Chief Compliance Officer. Rahul and Stephen bring a combined 27 years' experience working at Omni Partners prior to the launch of the Kryger Capital brand.
