Stockholm (HedgeNordic) – Nordic hedge funds gained an estimated 0.3% in February 2016 bringing year-to-date performance to -0.7%.

Managed Futures continued to build on its positive performance from the previous month as continued market turmoil benefited trend following strategies in particular. NHX CTA is now up close to 10% on the year, by far the strongest performer among the Nordic hedge fund categories. Elsewhere, equity and multi-strategy funds gained slightly while fixed income and fund of funds suffered losses.

On a country-by-country level, Finland and Sweden gained while Norway and Denmark posted losses.
