Lyxor Launches Alternatives UCITS

Lyxor Asset
Management
, a wholly owned subsidiary of Societe Generale, has launched a new
UCITS-compliant fund which aims to replicate Winton Capital Management’s
Diversified Program. This strategy is designed to give access to Winton’s management expertise through direct investments in UCITS-eligible
assets and will be available on Lyxor’s alternative UCITS platform.

The fund’s investment approach is based on the belief that specific market behaviour and
trends can be identified and profitably exploited. In particular, it will focus
on the analysis of market prices and volumes in order to capture trends through
liquid financial instruments including futures and forward currency contracts.

The fund will be available in euros, US dollars
and sterling; other currencies will be available on request. Investors in the fund will benefit from the weekly
liquidity and independent risk management provided by Lyxor.
