Stockholm (HedgeNordic) – The nominations for this year’s HFM EU Emerging Manager Awards have been released, with the recently-announced shortlist featuring 15 Nordic hedge funds. The award ceremony for the HFM EU Emerging Manager Awards, which honors the best-performing smaller and recently launched hedge funds in Europe, will take place at One Great George Street in London on November 16.

The nominations are based on a combination of annualized returns and Sharpe ratios over the 12-month period through mid-2021. The minimum fund asset size for inclusion at the HFM EU Emerging Manager Awards is $20 million and the maximum fund asset size is $500 million. Nordic hedge funds won four of the 18 award categories at last year’s edition of the HFM European Emerging Manager Awards. The funds that took home top honors were Alcur Select, Elementa, Formue Nord Markedsneutral, and KLP Alfa Global Energi.
