Hedgeweek APAC Digital Assets Awards 2023

Voting for the awards is conducted via an online poll of the entire Hedgeweek userbase, where participants are asked to make their choice among the shortlisted firms in each category.

The manager categories cover crypto and other digital asset strategies, while the service provider categories span all the key and evolving areas of service provision in the digital asset space.

All winners are invited to attend an exclusive ceremony and networking event on Thursday 12th October at The Westin in Singapore.

Pre-selection data for the fund manager awards is provided by Barclayhedge and are based on annualised returns over 12 months from Jan 1, 2022 to Dec 31, 2022, excluding the long term categories.

The hedge fund manager award categories include hedge funds with a track record of more than 1 year and over $25 million in AuM.

The New Manager award categories include hedge funds launched from 2020 to present. These categories have no AuM minimum.

The Long Term Performance categories are based on annualised returns over the 36 months from January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2022.

For the service provider categories, the nominated firms are based on a widespread survey of more than 100 APAC-based digital assets fund managers.

Managers will only be considered for selection if they report performance data to Barclayhedge. To find out more about this process, please contact: events@hedgeweek.com.
