MSS advises the FTSEhx Fund which perfectly tracks the FTSE Hedge index series. This is an investable index representing a portfolio of diversified, globally based Hedge Funds which pursue a variety of investment strategies and styles.

Daily values can be found in the Financial Times, Bloomberg and via other market data providers - list of vendor codes (pdf).


The FTSEhx Fund = FTSE Hedge Index and so with no tracking variance is very suited to Structured Product providers. This is all achieved through leveraging our own independent Managed Account platform, HIP.


The ISE listed FTSEhx Fund SPC was launched in April 2004 and offers subscriptions in a number of currencies including GPB, USD, JPY and EUR.
