LJH Global Investments, an American consulting and investment advisory firm in the field of alternative investments and wealth management, announced last week the opening of its London office, which aims to meet the growing alternative investment requirements of individuals, families and institutional investors throughout Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

LJH Global Investments Limited is now located at 23 Berkeley Square, Mayfair, in London. In charge of the European operation is Managing Director, Ronald M. Neumunz, who said: 'Statistics show that the United States accounts for approximately 80 percent of worldwide hedge fund investments. From that standpoint, we are confident that LJH is well-positioned to gain continued recognition as a worldwide authority in the hedge fund and alternative investment industry.'

Indeed, at the heart of LJH's non-traditional investment strategy is 'a compelling argument for hedge funds and private equity', says the company. James R. Hedges, IV, who founded LJH Global Investments and LJH Alternative Investments in 1992, stated: 'LJH principals in the US have been successfully investing in hedge funds since the 1970s. This experience, combined with a solid reputation for extensive due diligence, research and quality investment decisions, has contributed to our reputation as an industry leader. The major investment houses are primarily generalist firms; LJH, however, has carved a unique niche as exclusively dedicated to hedge funds and private equity.'
