For 14 years, the HFM European Performance Awards have brought together the entire industry to recognise and celebrate the best performing hedge funds, CTAs and FoHFs in Europe. All areas of hedge fund strategy are covered, from credit and equity to macro and managed futures.

After a year of virtual events and remote working, we know that the industry is looking forward to meeting face-to-face with peers and friends across the sector once again and we are pleased to announce that the HFM European Performance Awards 2021 will mark a return to in-person events and be hosted at York Lawns within Regent’s Park.
