At Wednesday night\u2019s awards ceremony in New York City, HedgeCoVest won top honors including \u201cFirst Place Overall\u201d <\/em>and \u201cBest In Class For Alternative Investments.\u201d <\/em>The company also claimed runner-up in the \u201cMost Disruptive <\/em>category.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThe competition for these awards included some of the most cutting edge names in the industry,\u201d said Evan Rapoport CEO of HedgeCoVest. \u201cTo be selected as \u201cBest Overall\u201d and best in class for \u201cAlternative Investments\u201d <\/em>is an honor for our firm and a testament to the innovation of the HedgeCoVest platform.\u201d<\/p>\n Jason Rasnick, CEO of Benzinga added \u201cWe looked at HedgeCoVest as creating another option for people that normally wouldn\u2019t be able to invest in hedge funds. While there were other really great companies under consideration, we saw HedgeCoVest as creating a completely new asset class.\u201d<\/p>\n HedgeCoVest was designed to change the way investors use alternative investments – by giving them greater control of their investments, more transparency and lower fees.<\/p>\n HedgeCoVest enables investors to replicate the strategies of hedge funds and is designed to be equally valuable to institutional investors and non-accredited retail investors. With a 2.5% flat fee, HedgeCoVest gives investors access to a wide range of strategies at significantly lower costs than a direct investment in the hedge funds themselves.<\/p>\n “Investors have been demanding\u00a0lower fees, better liquidity, and greater transparency from the hedge fund industry for years,\u201d said Mr. Rapoport. \u201cAfter looking at our platform, the Benzinga judges could clearly see how our cutting edge technology meets and exceeds all these demands, while also enabling the investor to maintain full control of their assets.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" New York (HedgeCo.Net) HedgeCoVest, the only real-time hedge fund investment platform for retail investors, has swept the board at this year\u2019s Benzinga Fintech Awards.
