Initiative Europe Launches Institutional Hedge Fund Guide
Investors Offshore, London

22 November 2002

Initiative Europe, an independent provider of specialist information on European private equity and venture capital markets, has launched a new service dedicated to detailing the hedge fund investment activities of Europe’s institutional investors.

The Review of Institutional Investors (RII) Hedge Funds provides detailed information covering key contacts, asset allocations, previous investments made, current hedge fund investment plans and preferred strategies for a growing number of European institutions. The service is designed for groups marketing hedge funds and funds-of-funds to the notoriously opaque European institutional marketplace, and simplifies the hunt for potential investors by providing essential intelligence in one easily searchable work tool.

Users of the service, says Initiative Europe, can be assured that they have access to detailed and up-to-date information to enable them to target the right institutions for their fund or fund-of-hedge-funds in the most time-efficient way. The information is delivered in electronic format, making the service easily accessible and simplifying the search for particular institutional targets.

While the institutional market in the US is relatively transparent, the European market in comparison represents a lot of legwork, cold-calls and banging on doors. RII Hedge Funds offers a shortcut to this time-consuming exercise, with institutions profiled on an ongoing basis. In addition to the growing database of institutional profiles, subscribers to the service are provided with access to ‘work-in-progress’, weekly emails and a telephone ‘hotline’ through which requests for particular information can be made.

Founded in 1988, Initiative Europe is a leading provider of specialist information on the European investment scene. Its paid-for services include a range of 'unquote' newsletters providing in-depth coverage of private equity activity by individual European region, Private Equity Europe, providing pan-European coverage of private equity investment, including detailed information on institutional appetite, fundraising and deals, supported with statistics and expert commentary, and Venture Capital Europe providing pan-European coverage of the European venture capital industry, including statistics and analysis.
