Stockholm (HedgeNordic) – As Tidan Capital continues its evolution into a multi-strategy hedge fund platform, the Stockholm-based boutique has appointed Anders Holst as Senior Portfolio Manager. With over 15 years of experience at Lynx Asset Management, Holst will work alongside Linus Nilsson to further develop Asterion, Tidan’s flagship multi-strategy systematic program, reinforcing the firm’s expansion in quantitative strategies.

Having joined Lynx Asset Management as a Senior Quantitative Analyst in 2004, Holst spent over 15 years at what is now the largest hedge fund manager in the Nordics. Throughout his tenure at Lynx, he held key leadership roles, including Portfolio Manager and Risk Manager, and was a member of both the investment and management committees. He led the model implementation team, overseeing order generation, backtesting, and risk management. Since departing Lynx in 2019, Holst has remained active in the industry, holding senior roles in asset management, consulting, and entrepreneurship while also providing advisory services to multiple hedge funds.

“Anders is a seasoned quant investor with a track record of building and refining systematic investment processes at scale. His tenure at Lynx and subsequent roles in asset management make him an exceptional addition to Tidan.”
