FAIRFIELD, Iowa — March 11, 2014 — BarclayHedge is proud to announce its collaboration with Hedge Funds Review to bring you the 14th Annual European Single Manager Awards.

Now in its fourteenth year, the Hedge Funds Review European Single Manager Awards remains the most prestigious event held exclusively for the European hedge fund industry and continues to attract the top names.

This year's European Single Manager Awards will continue to showcase young talent with a section of categories aimed at emerging managers. The Awards will acknowledge the best hedge fund managers in both quantitative and qualitative categories.

“The hedge fund investment process relies on more than just numbers and our judging process recognizes this. The members of our expert judging panel review the risk and return characteristics of funds before choosing a winner in each category,” said Margie Lindsay, Executive Editor of Hedge Funds Review.

Data from the BarclayHedge Hedge Fund Database provides initial quantitative screening of funds in each category. An expert judging panel then reviews the risk and return characteristics of the top funds and agrees on a shortlist and winner in each of the categories.

“The BarclayHedge Hedge Fund Database is widely recognized for its accuracy, comprehensiveness, and timeliness of reporting. We are delighted to have been selected by Hedge Funds Review to assist in the selection process for the performance awards that will be awarded at this prestigious event,” said Sol Waksman, President and Founder of BarclayHedge.
