Opalesque – Melanion Capital, Paris has received authorization from the French Autorité des Marchés Financiers to become the first alternative manager to specialize in investment in dividend futures.
Led by Jad Comair, founder and CIO, the Melanion team traces its track record and expertise in dividend futures (at a leading French investment bank) from 2008, the year of the first listing of a dividend future on Eurex. Since 2008, the dividend futures market has expanded in volume, in the number of traded instruments (single stocks, indices, options, etc), the number of exchanges issuing these contracts (Eurex, NYSE Euronext, MEFF, LSE, Tokyo, Singapore etc.) and the number of market participants (institutions, banks, family offices and others).
