Stockholm (HedgeNordic) – Origo Quest 1, a Swedish long/short equity fund specialised in Nordic small-cap companies, added nearly 8 percent to its NAV in October. This brings year to date returns to 18.3 percent. Nordic Hedge Index Equity sub category was up by 4,7% (30.9.2015).

Origo benefited from the overall positive sentiment in equity markets during the month, particularly from strong gains in top positions such as Invisio, Tribona, NKT Holdings and Pricer.

In the case of Tribona, a public offer from Catena was announced during the month. Origo considers the offer structurally and financially sound and will accept it according to a comment in their monthly update for October.
