  • Style: Discretionary or systematic or blend
  • Benchmark: UST or a preferred HFR index
  • Return expectation: 5-20% return target, Sharpe +1.5
  • Team: Not too driven by any house view
  • Liquidity: The investor is flexible (better liquidity is preferred)

Minimum requirements

  • Minimum strategy/fund AUM: USD 150 Million

  • If you submit a composite or single portfolio, please also provide the returns of the proposed fund itself (see Q5)

Investor Q&A

2022-11-01

Benchmark: We are benchmark agnostic on this particular investment; however, since many GM hedge funds use different benchmarks, we will use our internally calculated metrics to compare returns volatility adjusted, and it is therefore not too important for us if the fund itself chooses to compare against a particular HFR-index, T-bills, or multi-asset portfolio.

Sharpe ratio: 1.5 is a “stretch target”. Sharpe target 1+ is also interesting.

2022-10-27

Multi-Manager: Multi-Manager solutions are accepted if the fee level is competitive.

Deadline

November 16th, 2022 (Cut-off: Midnight CET, Expiry date inclusive)
