New York (HedgeCo.net) – Touchstone Investments has added to its alternative investment offerings by launching the Touchstone Merger Arbitrage Fund.  The Fund will be sub-advised by Boston-based institutional hedge fund advisor Longfellow Investment Management Co., which also serves as sub-advisor to the Touchstone Short Duration Fixed Income Fund.

“Volatile equity markets and an uncertain interest rate path have prompted many investors to embrace alternative sources of investment returns.” Steven Graziano, president of Touchstone Investments, said. “The Touchstone Merger Arbitrage Fund represents one such alternative for investors seeking low-correlated returns to traditional stocks and bonds.”

The Fund’s portfolio management team includes Barbara J. McKenna, CFA; David W. Seeley, CFA; Alexander R. Graham; and Andrew A. Shafter.
