\"download<\/a>New York (HedgeCo.Net) – A hedge fund group is introducing a six part “reality” TV show called Hedge Fund Lions’ Den <\/em>(HFLD).
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

The show will feature three “lions” or heads of the current hedge fund industry,\u00a0Luke Ellis,\u00a0the president of of the world’s largest publicly traded hedge fund manager, Man Group; Lord Fink,\u00a0philanthropist and CEO of ISAM, an alternative investment adviser; and\u00a0Aberdeen Asset Management’s\u00a0Andrew McCaffery.<\/p>\n

The first episode will introduce the emerging managers\u00a0who are competing for the allocation up to $25 million from each “lion” for a potential total of $75 million to one or more of the funds. The emerging managers are Christina McGuire and Gordon Eichhorst from Aperios Partners Investment Management; Neil Meadows from Laurentia Funds; and Charles-John (CJ) Donley and Robert Toffel from Strategis Capital Management.<\/p>\n

The site<\/a> itself, with roaring lions and fast paced film clips, proclaims, “Combining the best of UK TV shows\u00a0Dragon\u2019s Den<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0The Apprentice<\/em>, HFLD pits the emerging hedge fund managers against three industry \u2018lions\u2019 who offer advice, guidance and ultimately make a decision about whether or not to invest in their fund. Each manager has just two minutes to pitch their fund.”<\/p>\n

The show is being made exclusively for web-users.\u00a0The move may be seen by some as way of tentatively advertising under the new JOB’s act, without seeming “desperate.”<\/p>\n
