The Lutetia Patrimoine Fund, a Paris-based Ucits absolute return fund specialising in merger arbitrage, celebrated its first birthday last week with a 26-fold increase in assets under management.
The first offering from independent asset manager Lutetia Capital, the weekly-dealing Patrimoine Fund launched with USD3m on 27 November 2010. Since then assets have steadily increased to approximately USD80m.
Lutetia Capital co-founder Fabrice Seiman says: “We launched the Lutetia Patrimoine Fund with the goal of democratising hedge fund strategies, using a strategy that is rare among Ucits funds. We have shown not only that our strategy can work, but that it can excel in delivering consistent, risk-adjusted returns to investors—within Ucits guidelines for transparency and liquidity. As we always say, slow and steady wins the race. With the M&A cycle continuing to accelerate, we see great things for this fund.”
The Lutetia Patrimoine Fund is available through its custodian, BNP Paribas.
