Filed in archive Hedgetalk on April 25, 2007

In a HedgeCo story, "The BH Macro Limited fund, based on the British isle of Guernsey, is one of the first single strategy hedge funds to obtain a secondary listing on the London Stock Exchange under the recently revised listing rules in Chapter 14 of the Financial Services Authority regulations."

The single strategy hedge fund will invest in the Brevan Howard Master Fund, a $12 billion hedge fund with a predominant exposure to global fixed income and foreign exchange markets.

Sue Baines of Northern Trust said "We have a long history of servicing more traditional, closed-ended funds with listings in a variety of locations, in addition to being a leading administrator of alternative assets. This combination of expertise has allowed us to support many asset managers taking advantage of the increasing flexibility to list a range of alternative funds, in a variety of domiciles, whether these are private equity vehicles on Euronext, or hedge funds and funds of hedge funds in London. We are delighted to be working with Brevan Howard and look forward to continuing to grow our hedge fund and fund of funds client base."
