The Independent Alternatives Hedge Fund Academy
Independent Alternatives believes that the future of the business will be determined by the calibre of people it employs and how well the employees are trained.
In determining its recruitment plans, the company launched the Independent Alternatives Hedge Fund Academy to train the next Hedge Fund Manager, Hedge Fund Analyst or Quantitative Analyst. The programme launched during the first quarter of 2020. Candidates undergo a 3-year learning programme where they enrol for a CFA/CAIA/MFE charter. They understudy the Portfolio Managers over this period to become fully-fledged hedge fund professionals.
The business will continue looking for driven and motivated individuals passionate about investments to become their next Hedge Fund Manager, Hedge Fund Analyst or Quantitative Analyst. Due to the lack of transformation in the hedge fund industry and how difficult it is for black candidates to make it as a black Hedge Fund Manager in South African, we focus our attention on previously disadvantaged candidates.
