MAXAM Capital Management LLC, a US investment advisor and Singapore-based Eurekahedge, an independent hedge fund research firm, have announced the upcoming launch of the first exclusively regional investable hedge fund indices, Hedge Funds World reports.

According to the publication, the MaxEureka Asia, the MaxEureka Japan and the MaxEureka Global Emerging Markets indices, will offer investors comprehensive exposure to regional hedge fund talent in Asia, Japan and emerging markets.

The indices are set to launch on 1 January, but will not be available to US investors.

The MaxEureka Asia Index, a pan-Asian product, will include Japan, Australia and New Zealand. The MaxEureka Japan Index will offer access to managers concentrating exclusively on Japan.

The MaxEureka Global Emerging Markets Index will include emerging Asia, emerging Americas, Eastern Europe, Russia, the Middle East and Africa.

"These are exciting products, for exciting regions," commented Sandra Manzke, founder and chief executive officer of MAXAM.

"We are finding more exceptional managers and unique investment opportunities in these areas," she added.

Manager selection for the indices will be based upon assets under management and managers must have at least a one year audited track record to qualify.
