Hedge Week.com – Eiger Asset Management is planning to launch four coffee-related funds, comprising two index tracker funds, a hedge fund and a vehicle investing in the physical commodity.
Eiger is being assisted by London-based alternative investment consultancy firm Laven Partners.
Eiger is to launch tracker funds, one long and one short, that will follow the International Coffee Organization composite index. The trackers will trade coffee through derivatives and futures and offer investors a highly liquid strategy at a low cost.
