New York (HedgeCo.net) Over 115 top Fintech firms from across the nation entered the 2015 Benzinga Fintech Awards competition in March to recognize the most impressive new technology catering to financial services and capital markets.
At Wednesday night’s awards ceremony in New York City, HedgeCoVest won top honors in the competition winning “First Place Overall” and “Best In Class For Alternative Investments.”
“The competition for these awards included some of the biggest and cutting edge names in the industry. To be selected by this distinguished panel of industry experts as “First Place Overall” and “Best in Class for Alternative Investments” is an extreme honor to our firm, and a testament to the technological innovation of the HedgeCoVest platform,” said Evan Rapoport CEO of HedgeCoVest.
HedgeCoVest LLC, is a real-time hedge fund replication platform, providing retail investors, registered investment advisors, and institutional allocators the ability to invest in hedge fund strategies via their own separately managed brokerage account.

The platform’s intra-day liquidity, low investment thresholds, and simple flat fees meet the growing demand from hedge fund investors for more favorable investment terms.
