Barlings Capital bags double accolades at CF Awards!

CHICAGO, USA, October 8, 2017 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Barlings Capital was the standout winner at the Chicago Financial Awards last week, fending off fierce competition from a strong line-up of contenders to claim two of the top awards on offer. Top US investment house Barlings Capital was the only asset manager to take home more than one award — no mean feat in a year where several top prize winners only just pipped their closest contenders to claim victory.

Barlings Capital was crowned Best Investment Strategy Firm of the Year after a distinguished panel of industry judges deemed its investment track performance worthy of the top award. Barlings Capital also beat many others to take home the award for Most Innovative Cryptocurrency Investment Platform of the Year.

“We are delighted to accept both Best Investment Strategy Firm of the Year award as well as Most Innovative Cryptocurrency Investment Platform of the Year award ," said Barlings Capital CEO Mike Wallace . “Our platform allows for investing in cryptocurrencies with the best spreads and our global portfolio incorporates a counter-trend approach that has provided advisors with a systematic method for harvesting short-term market noise, and a powerful portfolio tool to help them successfully navigate multiple market cycles. Both awards are validation for both our team’s hard work and our strategy’s effectiveness.”

Barlings Capital uses a proprietary investment methodology that seeks to harvest market uncertainty, using behavioral investing measures to identify periods when fear and greed are present, and then to profit from these emotions by taking positions in cryptocurrency index futures contracts across the globe. Barling Capital ranks top in the Managed Futures Category in a recent study among 159 firms based on investment yield.

The Chicago Financial Awards are completely independent and are open to all investment firms and advisers working in the asset management industry. The editorial team drew up shortlists after extensive research of hundreds of funds, investment strategies, firms and individuals in the months leading up to the awards. All submissions were thoroughly scrutinised before being combined with detailed research to create a summary profile of each shortlisted nominee for the judges. A judging panel of senior editors and distinguished industry experts then met up to decide the winners.
