Tokyo-based Edgebell Capital Co plans to launch a global macro hedge fund called the Edgebell Capital Global Macro Strategy in February, Bloomberg reports. The vehicle, managed by former bankers at Goldman Sachs Group and Mizuho Corporate Bank, will bet on trends in equity, debt and currencies.
The fund is intended to be launched with a minimum of $26 million which would be garnered from high-net-worth Japanese investors. The firm’s CIO Masaru Koibuchi and COO Kazuho Suzuki are giving outside investors access to the vehicle through an offshore fund after only offering the strategy in the domestic market.
