Tycho Capital has launched a new UCITS vehicle in partnership with London-based CapeView Capital, the Tycho CapeView European Long Short Fund, which debuted with over $40m in investor commitment and is targeting European equity long-short strategies.
According to a press statement, the fund attracted strong demand from wealth managers, family offices, and institutional investors across the UK and Europe.
CapeView, founded in 2007 by co-portfolio managers Michael Sakkas and Sushil Shah, brings an 18-year track record of generating alpha on both long and short positions, with low correlation to broader equity markets and a focus on capital preservation across multiple cycles.
The fund joins Tycho’s existing ICAV platform, which currently houses five alternative strategies, including macro, systematic trading, private equity, event-driven, and market-neutral equity funds. Tycho leverages its research team, which meets with over 300 managers annually, to identify high-quality partnerships and bespoke investment solutions.
Georg Reutter, CEO of Tycho Capital, said the addition of CapeView expands the firm’s alternative investment offering, highlighting the strategy’s strong short-side alpha and low-volatility profile. Sakkas added that the partnership would help bring CapeView’s European equity expertise to a broader investor base.
