Wavelength Capital Management’s (Wavelength) Wavelength Interest Rate Neutral Fund (WAVLX) has been named as the ‘Best Liquid Alternatives’ 40 Act’ Fund at the 2018 Hedgeweek USA Awards.
This marks the second year in a row that the fund has received such recognition, having last year won the award in the Hedgeweek Global Awards.
The awards celebrate the achievements of firms that contributed to another transformative year for the alternative asset management sector. Award winners were determined by the votes of Hedgeweek’s subscriber base, which includes institutional investors, wealth managers, fund managers, and other industry professionals. Established in 2003, Hedgeweek is the leading digital publisher covering all facets of the global hedge fund industry.
“It is truly an honour for Wavelength to again be recognised by our fellow industry practitioners,” says Mark Landis, Wavelength’s co-founder. “We are grateful to be stewards of capital for our many clients and for the trust they put into our team and our investment strategy. There are exciting times ahead for Wavelength and we appreciate the support of the wealth management community.”
Wavelength was founded five years ago as an independent investment management firm specialising in liquid, transparent, and cost-effective investment solutions designed to preserve assets and produce consistent returns in any economic environment. The firm invests using a systematic, research-driven approach that applies quantitative tools to process fundamental economic and market information.
“We are thrilled by the recognition of our team for delivering on our investment mandate,” says Andrew Dassori, Wavelength’s co-founder and Chief Investment Officer. “Our investment philosophy is built on a fundamental understanding of risk and the straightforward application of macroeconomic theory which we believe drives asset prices.”
Landis and Dassori founded Wavelength in 2013, after extensive experience in the asset management industry. Landis previously served as Head of Fixed Income in the Americas for France’s second largest bank, Societe Generale, and Dassori was previously a portfolio manager at Credit Suisse Asset Management.
