Healthcore Management, King Street Capital Management and Paulson & Co. are the nominees for AIN sister publication Foundation & Endowment Money Management’s Hedge Fund Manager of the Year award—one of three alternatives categories.
Friedman Fleischer & Lowe, Lexington Partners and Oaktree Capital Management are the three firms receiving nods in the Private Equity Manager of the Year category. For real assets, FEMM has shortlisted The Forestland Group, Macquarie Agricultural Funds Management and Touradji Capital Management.
Healthcore, King Street and Paulson are all shortlisted primarily for outperforming peers in their respective sectors last year. John Paulson’s firm was also nominated for AIN’s Hedge Fund Leader of the Year award, eventually missing out to Brevan Howard Asset Management (totalalternatives.com, June 26).
FEMM will announce the winners at a gala dinner on Sept 21 at the Four Seasons Resort Aviara in San Diego. For more information on the nominees, visit foundationendowment.com.
