Stockholm (HedgeNordic) – We are happy to announce the funds nominated for the 2016 Nordic Hedge Award. The organizer ranked all funds eligible for nomination according to a calculation model co-developed with Stockholm School of Economics based on data drawn from the Nordic Hedge Index. This model  translates the funds´ results into points earned for various achievement. Points are awarded for absolute performance, stability of returns, performance in relation to historic returns of the respective fund, performance in relation to the defined benchmark (subindex within NHX) and risk adjusted returns after being weighted with multipliers.

The top five scorers of each category are defined as “short listed” and are nominated for the Nordic Hedge Award. The short list may be extended by aditional funds for (a) any fund that scores 85% of points achieved of the highest point scorer (b) any fund that scores 90% of points achieved by the third ranked fund. The short list then will be handed to Jury members, who will ad or subtract points per fund to determine the final ranking.

The winners of the 2016 Nordic Hedge Award will be announced on April 26th 2016 in Stockholm and presented with their trophies. To view the nominated funds, please click here: 2016 Nominations

Congratulations to all nominated funds!
