Notable Emerging Market Hedge Funds

Hey guys,

I'm just wondering if any of you know off the top of your heads any exceptional EM Hedge Funds. Doesn't have to be the most famous or even have a lot of employees, just one that is respected within the industry. Google isn't really doing it justice here on this one...

Thanks in advance, I really appreciate it.

 

Ping Capital has been doing really well, though I'm not sure if I'd want to work there. A quick google or dealbreaker search will tell you all you need to know.

There have been many great comebacks throughout history. Jesus was dead but then came back as an all-powerful God-Zombie.
 

Gramercy are excellent, predominantly on the distressed debt side. Patricularly Richard Koeninsberger who pretty much ran the Argentine restructuring.

Other good shops include Prince Street, previously Sloane Robinson were good but have had a tough couple of years.

On the whole I would say that Asia / Lat Am / EEUR funds specialist Funds are better than the GEM funds.

 

Thank You....another question, I am aware that in terms of day-day functions a FoF researches industries as well as fund managers that operate within those industries and a hedge fund does research primarily on potential investments, however would I meet some if not all of the prerequisite's necessary to land an entry level position at a hedge fund?
