CityWire.co.uk- Edinburgh-based Martin Currie is to launch a fund of hedge funds next month.
The Martin Currie Omnium Fund, which will be available in April, will blend the firm’s current range of hedge funds within a single vehicle and have no additional layer of fees.
The fund will have access to all funds in the Martin Currie hedge fund range with allocations being based on their risk-banding.
David Sheasby, a director in Martin Currie’s global equities team, will manage the fund. Prior to joining the firm in 2004, Sheasby spent 18 years with Aegon Asset Management.
