Earlier this year, 47 Degrees North entered into a strategic partnership with Iveagh, the London-based private investment house of the Guinness family. Iveagh acts as initial investor of the fund that is open to other qualified investors. Claude Porret, chief executive of 47 Degrees North, says: 'This fund launch complements our product offering and is a natural extension of our focus on emerging hedge fund managers. New and upcoming hedge funds strategies are often managed by newer, independent and entrepreneurial teams. Our Innovation Fund is an attractive offering for investors who want to get access and know-how in regard to new strategies in a diversified portfolio in order to mitigate risks.'
The fund combines a thematic set of alternative investment strategies ranging from transportation, electricity, Middle East - Northern African equities, insurance-linked securities and alternative energy to volatility arbitrage and multi-commodities.
