To raise industry standards for easy access to hedge fund data, Credit Suisse and Tremont Hedge Fund Index launched a new Web site with a range of features for investors, advisors, managers, consultants and journalists.
The Web site will enable users to compare investment styles and performance between traditional and alternative investments, the fund announced this week in a news release.
“Our revised website, including the new logo, symbolizes our long-standing commitment to the principles of objectivity, transparency and accuracy,” said Oliver Schupp, president of the Credit Suisse Tremont Index LLC and senior member of the Credit Suisse Funds and Alternative Solutions Group.
Features include a streamlined Index in order to simplify user identification. The Credit Suisse/Tremont Hedge Fund Index is now referred to as the Broad Index, Credit Suisse/Tremont Investable Index is now referred to as Blue Chip Index, and Credit Suisse/Tremont Sector Invest Indices are now referred to collectively as the Sector Indices.
A simplified tab structure and additional user-friendly features will facilitate navigation through the site and between the Indices, and a weekly and monthly return data for the Blue Chip Index and Sector Indices are now reported together on the performance page.
The downloading capabilities of the Index values, returns and statistics have been enhanced, and the monthly press releases are now provided in a downloadable PDF format.
