Stockholm (HedgeFonder.nu) – Förra fredagen presenterades vinnarna på Hedgeweek Awards i London. Detta var tredje gången som det finansiella mediaföretaget belönade framstående insatser inom hedgefondvärlden. Precis som tidigare år avgjordes vinnarna genom en omröstning bland Hedgeweeks 41.000 prenumeranter, som inkluderar både privata och institutionella investerare, samt fondförvaltare och andra professionella aktörer inom industrin, inkluderande fondadminsitratörer, Prime Brokers, advokatbyråer, konsulter och rådgivare.
