eVestment Acquires HedgeFund.net

eVestment Alliance, a global provider of institutional investment data intelligence and analytic solutions, has acquired Channel Capital Group, owner of HedgeFund.net, a source for hedge fund data, research, and news.

The combined company will provide a single, global database serving institutional investment professionals who focus on either alternative or traditional investments, as well as “hybrid” investors who seek solutions to help them select and manage investments across both investment categories.   

eVestment’s dataset of over 20,000 institutional strategies will be combined with HedgeFunds’s 18,000+ alternative strategies.  Both will leverage the eVestment Analytics system, the platform for online manager comparisons, research, and competitive intelligence.
