Nordic Hedge Award announces 2012’s best hedge funds

The winners of the 2012 Nordic Hedge Award were announced during an evening event on April 24th in Stockholm, Sweden. The event gathered over 120 hedge fund professionals and investors from the Nordic region. Coeli Asset Management is sponsoring partner of the award that honors the best Nordic hedge funds and their management teams.

”We are proud to be part of the Nordic Hedge Award and the positive attention it brings to the Nordic hedge fund community. There are many great hedge funds and management teams in the region and we think their work deserves this type of recognition.” says Johan Lindberg, CEO of Coeli Asset Management, and continues:

”We are in the process of setting up Coeli Asset Management in Luxembourg and establishing ourselves as a Nordic multi manager with international distribution. Our own hedge funds are a key part of this ambition, so it makes sense for us to support an initiative like Nordic Hedge Award. We see it as a way of communicating the strategy we have committed to.”

The winners of the award were determined in a two step process. The top five funds per category were shortlisted using a model co-developed by Nordic Business Media and a PhD student assigned to the project by Stockholm School of Economics. A professional jury then added their qualitative scoring of each fund to create final results and ranking.
