GWM unveils Ucits compliant hedge fund
July 30, 2010
The multi-family office division of independent financial group GWM Holdings has launched a Ucits III compliant long/short European equity fund, 7H Absolute Fund.

The Luxembourg-domiciled Sicav fund will invest in equities and equity-related instruments listed on European exchanges.

Peter Sartogo, CEO at GWM, said there were plans to launch another Ucits hedge fund at a later date.

The 7H fund will be managed by Simone Chelini and Pietropaolo Rinaldi. They were both co-founders and fund managers of the Unifortune Albatross Fund, a long/short European equity fund focused on Italy.

The managers were chosen because they weathered the 2008 crisis "very well" and had generated excellent returns since 2005, said Sartogo.
