Lyxor and Martin Currie launch China Dragon Fund

Related Topics

Lyxor Asset Management and Martin Currie have launched the Lyxor/Martin Currie China Dragon Fund.

The fund is a non-benchmarked long/short strategy available exclusively through Lyxor and Martin Currie.

Martin Currie manages USD4.7bn in dedicated Greater China strategies. The company has a China team of 13 analysts and portfolio managers based in Edinburgh and Shanghai.

The fund’s manager, James Chong, has over 15 years of investment experience and currently manages over USD400m across China multi-cap products.

Allan MacLeod (pictured), managing director of sales, marketing and client services at Martin Currie, says: “The fund has run as a model portfolio since February 2008 returning 12.6 per cent. The fund has protected capital, generated alpha and delivered the returns with around one-third of the volatility of the market – all things it aims to achieve.

“We have a long and successful relationship of working with Lyxor. Our collaboration started in 2002 with the launch of the Lyxor/Martin Currie Japan AR Fund, and was followed by the Lyxor/Martin Currie Global Resources Fund. We are delighted that the China Dragon fund is joining this suite.”
