Message from Christine du Fretay, President.

HDF, a management company licensed and supervised by the French market authority, the AMF, is a European leader in multi-management. Our business is to identify, select and bring together the best talents in traditional, flexible and absolute return fund management, to construct portfolios aimed at optimising risk-adjusted performance.

Founded in 1986, HDF’s track-record demonstrates its capacity to generate robust performances that are stable over time and built with capital protection in mind.

As an independent company (with its share capital wholly owned by its management and staff), we are particularly proud to assert this status. Independence is indeed an essential asset in our business as manager of funds of funds.

With its team of more than 50 professionals based in Paris, New York, Zurich, Geneva and Brussels, HDF enjoys an excellent reputation and has always honoured its commitments to its clients, whatever the state of the market.

Rigour in fund manager analyses, transparency, risk control and liquidity management have been HDF’s hallmarks for 25 years. You can rest assured that I take care every day to ensure they are being scrupulously respected.

Christine du Fretay
