Stockholm (HedgeNordic) – Swedish fund boutique Tidan Capital has appointed Serge Houles as its new Chief Executive Officer. Since joining the firm in late 2023 to head business development and investor relations, Houles has been pivotal in guiding Tidan Capital’s expansion from a single-product boutique to a multi-product firm focused on offering diverse, alpha-driven strategies.

Serge Houles is best known for his role as Managing Director and Chief Client Officer at the now-defunct multi-billion dollar systematic manager, IPM Informed Portfolio Management. Since joining Tidan Capital, Houles has played a crucial role in shaping the firm’s strategic direction and growth. According to a press release from Tidan, his extensive expertise in investments, client relations, and business development makes him well-suited to lead the firm into the next phase of its evolution.

“Serge’s deep understanding of our business and vision for the future make him an ideal choice for CEO.”

“Serge’s deep understanding of our business and vision for the future make him an ideal choice for CEO,” says Michael Falken, Chief Investment Officer and co-founder of Tidan Capital. “His leadership has already proven essential in driving our success, and I’m confident that under his guidance, Tidan will continue to thrive.” Founded in 2020 by Brummer & Partners alumni, Tidan Capital initially focused on managing a capital structure relative value strategy. Since Houles joined, the firm has evolved into a collaborative investment platform offering a broader range of alpha-driven strategies managed by distinct, experienced teams.

“I look forward to continuing this journey with our talented teams as we continue to build on our strong foundations.”

This dynamic not only fosters innovation but also generates real value for our clients,” he continues. “I look forward to continuing this journey with our talented teams as we continue to build on our strong foundations.”
