Institutional Investor magazine, along with its sister publication Alpha, today announced the 2017 Hedge Fund Rising Stars, a list of 30 up-and-comers in the hedge fund industry.
Split between those working at hedge funds and those working for allocators that invest in hedge funds, the Rising Stars are nominated by their colleagues and industry peers. The stars will be honored at Institutional Investor’s Hedge Fund Industry Awards gala dinner, which is taking place at the Mandarin Oriental in New York on Wednesday, June 21. The complete list of Hedge Fund Rising Stars follows. For more about the dinner and information on attending, please visit the awards website.
