AltEdge Capital (Suisse) is located in Geneva and is headed by Christophe Martin who has been appointed managing director. Mr Martin will focus on business development and client services across a range of countries in Europe. “Establishing a presence in Switzerland reflects the strong growth in our business over recent years, and importantly enables us to be closer to our investor base so that we can better service them,” ACM's president Eric de Candia told FINalternatives.

It currently manages around $700 million across four funds of funds and one managed account.
