Eurekahedge and FinLab announced last week that with immediate effect, they are providing daily feeds of the Eurekahedge Fund Database through PackHedge, enabling their mutual clients to track, analyse and act on this information in a timely, accurate and a more frequent basis.

Mr. Denis de Pentheny O’Kelly, CEO of FinLab S.A. said ”Our clients worldwide demand that PackHedge’s rich analytics and reporting tools are applied to the most current data available from hedge funds, regardless of location and reporting source of these funds. As such, Eurekahedge and FinLab are deeply committed to making sure that data published by hedge fund managers, administrators or custodians are delivered rapidly, accurately and securely to our mutual clients. In turn, PackHedge clients benefit directly in being able to apply the world’s leading edge analytics, charting and reporting tools embedded within PackHedge to the most recent and accurate data available from the hedge fund community. Such capability, which includes true performance analysis on a daily data, brings direct benefits to our clients in their ability to understand and manage their investment portfolios in an ever increasing volatile market. They must quickly generate complex analyses and reports accurately and respond to changes in an informed way and without delay to the numerous alpha and beta factors that influence the professional asset allocators’ decision making on a daily basis”.

Mr. Alexander Mearns, Managing Director of Eurekahedge said, “We are delighted to have worked with FinLab to deliver this industry-first capability so swiftly to our mutual clients. With hundreds of new hedge funds entering the market every month, our investor clients increasingly demand the latest performance numbers from these new and existing funds. Now this data will not only be available from the Eurekahedge database but also through the powerful analytical PackHedge application on a daily basis.”
