Tidan Capital, the Stockholm-based hedge fund firm founded by three former Brummer and Partners execs, has appointed Dennis Karlsson as a Senior Portfolio Manager within its volatility and options arbitrage team.
With over 20 years of experience in derivatives, risk management, and portfolio management, Karlsson brings a wealth of expertise to Tidan Capital as the firm expands its NOVA strategy into single-stock volatility and options arbitrage.
Karlsson’s appointment reunites him with Magnus Linder, Tidan Capital’s Head of Volatility and Options Arbitrage, marking the continuation of a successful 15-year professional partnership. Together, the pair previously developed and managed sophisticated options and volatility arbitrage strategies, achieving consistent results across diverse market conditions.
In a press statement, Linder said: “Expanding NOVA into single-stock derivatives is a natural progression of our strategy, reflecting Tidan’s focus on pioneering solutions. Having worked
closely with Dennis for over 15 years, I know his expertise and insights will enhance the depth and breadth of our approach, delivering exceptional value to our investors.”
Before joining Tidan Capital, Karlsson held senior roles at Swedbank Markets, where he developed tailored derivative strategies for institutional clients, and Nordea, where he gained extensive experience in portfolio and risk management.
