On Friday the 27th of May over 300 members of the global hedge fund community turned up to congratulate the winners of The Asian Masters of Hedge Awards 2005.
The truly global make-up of attendees again showed the immense interest in the Asian region from the US and Europe. With more than 120 people from hedge funds and over 80 people from investment organisations, we are pleased we succeeded in bringing together as many hedge funds and investors.

Ladies and gentlemen alike were decked out in beautiful gowns and well-pressed tuxedos no less dazzling than at a Paris fashion show.

After the 1am bar close at the Ritz, parties continued at Souv, Velvet, Balaclava and the Swissotel till the wee hours.

A good time was had by all and we would like to thank everyone who attended and made the event such a success. We have proved that Asia deserves a party!
