"Your bottom line is our top priority"
Both founding partners, Myriam Stephens and Linda Munn have a broad base of knowledge and a well-established, comprehensive network of contacts in the financial services industry and especially in the hedge fund arena. What makes Hedgepros different are the collective experiences of its founders, which span over four decades, and how they apply their knowledge and skills to the needs of the hedge fund industry. Hedgepros' competitive edge is in their founders' expertise and proven ability to increase a hedge fund's bottom line. For example, generating significant savings for clients by implementing effective techniques for streamlining operations, reducing overhead by outsourcing services, and growing assets through effective marketing activities.
