Javelin Capital, the London-based emerging markets equity hedge fund firm backed by Majedie Investments, is to launch a UCITS version of its fund via a SICAV platform established by Goldman Sachs International — taking total assets in its strategy to around $50 million.
The regulated, Luxembourg-domiciled Javelin Capital Emerging Markets Alpha Fund will mirror the $32 million market-neutral Javelin Capital Global Equity Strategies Fund, which is structured as an Irish-domiciled QIF. The UCITS version is set to launch with £15 million and is intended to attract investors from Continental Europe.
The new fund is structured as a sub-fund of the Serviced Platform SICAV, a multi-manager platform established by Goldman Sachs International and launched last May to enable third party managers to create their own independently managed UCITS-compliant funds.
