Flygande start för nystartad trendfond

Latest Report

This year’s Alternative Fixed Income report from HedgeNordic explores how institutional investors and asset managers are navigating this new reality, balancing yield and resilience amid shifting credit cycles, structural change, and evolving sources of return.

Stockholm (HedgeNordic) – Leda Braga, f.d. förvaltare på BlueCrest Capital Management, startade eget per den 1 januari i år. Och vilken start sen – första månaden av handel under eget namn renderade i en uppgång på 9,5% under januari.

Den 48-åriga Leda Braga, född i Brasilien och med en civilingenjörsexamen och doktorstitel från Imperial College i London, ledde framgångsrikt två fonder – BlueTrend och BlueMatrix – inom BlueCrest under 10 års tid och tog med sig dessa in i det nya egna bolaget Systematica, med bas i Geneve. Och starten kunde som sagt inte ha blivit bättre.

Tillväxten i kapital under förvaltning har varit starkt och Braga är nu den kvinna som förvaltar störst kapital, med sina totalt 9 mdr USD i de båda fonderna inom Systematica.

Braga har ett gediget trackrecord med sin fond BlueTrend, som sedan starten 2004 har givit en genomsnittlig årsavkastning på 11,8%, jämfört med S&P 500 som når upp till 8% under samma period. Under 2008 steg hennes fond med hela 43% – i likhet med svenska Lynx f.ö. – och var därmed bland de bästa förvaltningsresultaten det året.

Kostnaden för förvaltningen uppgår till 1,5% i fast avgift och 20% performance-fee.
