LONDON, November 24 /PRNewswire/ -- Financial Risk Management ('FRM'), a
global fund of hedge funds group with offices in Europe, Asia, North America
and Australia, today announced that it has launched FRM Principia, a new
approach to serving distribution partners and their client base of
sophisticated high net worth investors and smaller institutions.
FRM Principia represents a new generation of fund of hedge fund products
that aim to set the highest standards in the distribution marketplace, backed
by FRM's renowned institutional expertise and its rigorous, institutional
quality investment process.
In the distribution marketplace FRM Principia products will set new
standards in areas including:
- Transparency: detailed monthly reports will give investors
class-leading levels of transparency and insight into the drivers
of returns
- Monthly or better liquidity: and strict measures to help deliver
promised liquidity
- New product range: compelling new portfolios constructed to benefit
from recent events
- No performance fees: no performance fees will be charged by FRM on
Principia products
Blaine Tomlinson, Founder and Chairman of FRM said:
"We are very pleased to launch FRM Principia to serve our distribution
partners worldwide. While FRM's investor base is mainly institutional, we
have a number of relationships with financial institutions that distribute
our products to their sophisticated clients. Principia is a new way to serve
these important relationships and develop new ones. Importantly, it gives
investors more choice in products that match their liquidity needs and
investment horizons, creating greater alignment amongst clients in
portfolios."
Marc Fisher, Head of FRM Principia, said:
"FRM Principia products represent a fresh perspective and a considered
approach to serving distribution partners and their clients. We have applied
FRM's longstanding expertise in the institutional marketplace and customised
the approach to be fully responsive to today's distributor and private client
needs. The results are products that set class-leading standards in critical
areas such as liquidity, transparency and performance."
On a regular basis, FRM will develop and launch products for distribution
partners and their clients under the Principia brand.
