Blue Sky accepted on BT Wrap


Hedge fund specialist Blue Sky Alternative Investments has announced that its Blue Sky Apeiron Global Macro Trust has been accepted on BT Wrap.
Inclusion on the BT Wrap was announced by Blue Sky national relationship manager Vaughan Henry, who said the firm had decided to list on BT Wrap and Hub 24 after feedback from financial advisers and dealer groups.
"These platforms span businesses from boutique and IFA firms to institutionally aligned groups, giving more advisers the opportunity to access our Global Macro Trust," he said.
Henry claimed that daily pricing of the hedge fund, effective from 1 March 2012, would also simplify implementation and streamline the application process for financial advisers running model portfolios or managed accounts.
He said Blue Sky, which recently listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX), had long talked about the opportunities in alternative assets.
