Structured as liquid, multi-strategy funds, LDF and Focus fund will invest in between 15 and 25 Lyxor managed accounts across a range of hedge fund strategies and are now pass ported for marketing to professional investors in 10 countries.

LDF aims to target returns of LIBOR plus 5% p.a. and Focus manages a high-conviction portfolio with a performance objective of LIBOR plus 7% p.a.

The funds will charge a management fee of 0.50% p.a. and a performance fee of 5% over LIBOR.

Jean-Marc Stenger, CIO for alternative investments at Lyxor, said: "As markets normalize, the outlook for directional strategies is increasingly uncertain and the consensus is that talented hedge fund managers stand to deliver significant alpha in 2014 and beyond."
