Stockholm (HedgeNordic) – Danish sub-investment credit manager Capital Four Management has been awarded “Best Fixed Income – High Yield Hedge Fund” at the Hedgeweek European Awards 2020. Capital Four and the winners in the remaining categories were presented with awards at a ceremony in London on February 26.

The winners were decided by a poll of Hedgeweek readers that include industry professionals at hedge fund firms, investors, fund administrations, custodians, accountants, auditors, law firms, consultants and fund distributors. Capital Four was the only Nordic name among the winners at the Hedgeweek European Awards 2020.

Capital Four, co-founded by CEO Sandro Näf (pictured) in 2007, is a Copenhagen-based asset manager focusing on high yield bonds, leveraged loans and other asset classes and instruments in the sub-investment grade space.
