After already being named Group of the Year in 2008 for our hedge funds management, we were selected by international professionals for a new distinction at the InvestHedge Awards 2010 held in New York on 11 March. Alexandre Col, head of our Investment Fund Dept, and analyst Marc Sbeghen were present at the ceremony to collect the prize.
Our approach to alternative management performs well in bull and bear markets alike, providing long-term growth and protection.

Edmond de Rothschild Prifund ("Prifund") is an Undertaking for Collective Investment with multiple sub-funds, incorporated under the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. Its alternatively managed Sub-Funds with "α" or "Alpha" in their name involve special risks arising from their stakes in investment vehicles that use alternative management methods and/or invest in transferable securities related to the real estate sector. The nature and degree of the risks inherent to such Sub-Funds’ investments are not comparable to those typically encountered in an investment in transferable securities issued by companies listed on the world’s major stock exchanges. No assurance can be given as to the achievement of such Sub-Funds’ investment objectives. Return on investment in such Sub-Funds may substantially vary over time and investors may lose all or part of their holdings in them. Such holdings are not intended as a complete investment program for all categories of investors. Would-be investors are advised to examine carefully whether an investment in such Sub-Funds is appropriate for them, in light of their personal situation (see "Considerations on risks for "α" alternative management Sub-Funds" in chapter 31.3 of the partial prospectus and "Considerations on risks for "α" Sub-Funds which invest in transferable securities related to the real estate sector" in chapter 31.7.3 of the partial prospectus). Edmond de Rothschild Prifund’s Board of Directors shall nevertheless make its best effort to monitor risks by using a procedure of due diligence to select the investment included in such Sub-Funds (see "Due Diligence Procedure" in chapters 31.4 and 31.7.4 of the partial Prospectus). In order to facilitate the investor’s analysis, the specific applicable provisions and the data sheets for "special risk" Sub Funds are contained in chapters 31 and 32 of the partial Prospectus.
