Allenbridge Hedgeinfo and HFMWeek proudly present our inaugural annual HFMWeek European Performance Awards in partnership together. This prestigious event brings together leading hedge fund practitioners from across the industry to celebrate the achievements of the top performing hedge funds and funds of hedge funds advised from within the EMEA region.

Allenbridge Hedgeinfo is the industry's most experienced organiser of hedge fund awards. We uphold the highest standards, and aim for the awards to be a true indicator of a fund that is worth investing in. Unlike some other awards which focus on blunt ratios based on only 12m of data, we use cutting edge analytical technology and highly experienced judges. We use Allenbridge Tempus for shortlisting the nominees, which is a multi-metric (7 blended metrics) quantitative tool for assessing risk-adjusted hedge fund performance on an exponentially time-weighted basis.

The deadline for nominations has now closed. However, if you want to book a table please click here:
