Is it beneficial to include a short description of a company on your resume if it is small?
For example, I am currently interning at a small ABL hedge fund that most people probably haven't heard of outside the ABL world. Is it common to include a description under the company name/position, or just highlight it throughout the bullet points?

I've seen it done both ways.
Whatever method you use make sure you highlight its AUM and its strategy
Personally I prefer the SHORT description method
Example:
"Name of Firm", long/short equity hedge fund with $8.5 bn AUM - Describe your duties - Describe your duties - Describe your duties
You can also work a company description into a bullet point.
For example:
ABC Investments - Analyzed xyz sector for a long/short equity hedge fund with $x AUM
