Bloomberg – Raaj Shah, an ex-partner of Och-Ziff Capital Management Group LLC, co-founded a hedge fund last month trading under-researched and mispriced Asian securities affected by events such as mergers, tax changes and forced selling.
The almost $50 million Matchpoint Asia Fund Ltd. targets annual returns of 15 percent to 17 percent without betting on market direction, Sean Debow, chief operating officer and co- founder of its adviser Matchpoint Investment Management Asia Ltd., said in an interview. Hong Kong-based Matchpoint’s nine- person team has the capacity to manage $700 million, he added.
