GFX Alternatives, a member of the Global Fund Exchange Group, has announced the formation of a new multi-manager portfolio to invest in the dynamic alternative energy investment sector.
GFX Alternatives is dedicated to a diversified, global macro, multi-manager approach to allocating assets to premier investment managers who specialize in a broad spectrum of alternative energy opportunities. The firm is led by a management team of veteran hedge fund executives, Lauralouise Duffy and Anric Blatt, and will accept outside investors at the end of the first quarter 2009.
“Throughout the world there is an energy revolution occurring that is driving public and private investments into the alternative energy arena,” said Lauralouise Duffy, CEO, GFX Group LLC. “Investments in alternative energy solutions are aimed at achieving energy independence while reducing environmental damages. Governments, quasi-governmental organizations, states, countries, corporations and consumers around the world are implementing critical changes to transform their use and selection of energy resources.”
The world of energy and the investment world are on the brink of an evolutionary chapter in history. GFX Alternatives seeks to focus its private investment capabilities on the nascent and necessary development of energy alternatives and the evolutionary opportunities that accompany the changing face of global energy.
“Increased spending in alternative energies and renewable resources will cause significant economic growth and prosperity for the companies embracing this change, yet very few asset management companies exist to explore, develop and profit from this phenomenon,” said GFX Chairman Anric Blatt. “The GFX team has unique and extensive experience investing in and hedging allocations to the energy and resources sector. The firm is uniquely positioned to take advantage of extraordinary opportunities in this burgeoning corner of the investment world.”
