AHL Diversified, Man Group’s battered managed futures hedge fund, has staged a dramatic recovery by generating a return of 34% in calendar 2014, accompanied by rises for its sister AHL strategies.
The recovery ends a turgid five years for Diversified, during which the fund was range bound. AHL Diversified's last good year was 2008 when it generated 33%, nearly identical to last year's gain.
