The fund seeks to generate long-term capital appreciation and aims to participate in rising markets and preserve capital in down markets.

US-based Analytic Investors, which manages approximately $10bn in assets, will serve as sub-advisor to the Fund.

The fund will follow the same investment strategy as that of the Analytic Global Long/Short Equity Portfolio, a Separately Managed Account (SMA), which was launched in December 2009.

Additionally, the firm has also changed the name of its 361 Long/Short Equity Fund to the 361 Market Neutral Fund last month.

Tom Florence, CEO of 361 Capital, said: "The launching of this Fund will provide a quality long/short mutual fund option to investors. There is clearly a shortage of attractive long/short equity mutual funds, and even more so funds that deliver global exposure."

Harin de Silva, president and portfolio manager of Analytic Investors, said: "We have worked with the senior management at 361 in the past and believe they have the right approach to working with advisors, and will execute their plans for the growth of this Fund."
