Blue Horizon Asset Management has announced the launching of its new fund, the Blue Horizon Global Equity Fund, LP. The fund employs a long/short equity strategy with a focus on investing in international equity markets. This includes companies that are internationally based, U.S. companies with the bulk of their operations or sales in overseas markets, or international companies that are listed on U.S. exchanges. The fund is designed to provide investors with above average market returns, while limiting volatility through diversification, tactical asset allocation, and equity derivatives.
The new fund will be managed by Neal Goyal, Chief Investment Offer of Blue Horizon Asset Management. He currently overseas the firm’s two other hedge funds that also employ long/short strategies with different sector concentrations. As a result of Mr. Goyal’s success in managing the firm’s first two funds, Blue Horizon decided to launch an internationally focused fund to offer current and future investors exposure to the global markets.
Mr. Goyal states, “due to the rapid pace of globalization, international companies offer a unique opportunity to participate in a variety of fast-growing economies. Moreover, with the budding nature of several of these international markets, there are a vast number of opportunities to exploit dislocations and misconceptions in valuations.”
Founded in 2006, Blue Horizon Asset Management is a Chicago-based investment management firm that oversees a portfolio of hedge funds. The firm was launched with a niche focus to offer customized investment solutions through hedge funds and managed accounts to institutions and high net-worth individuals.
