DENMARK - Consultant Kirstein Finans tendered a 40 million-euro emerging markets mandate on behalf of a Danish asset manager through IPE-Quest.

The mandate, which could potentially amount to more than 40 million euros, is for actively managed emerging markets equities.

The preferred benchmark would be the MSCI Emerging Markets Free, but managers not using this benchmark will also be included. No formal restrictions on the tracking error range has been set.

Based on quantitative and qualitative analysis, conducted by Kirstein Finans, the manager search will result in a long-list which will be provided to the client.

The successful manager will be expected to manage the mandate as a segregated account.

Queries can be addressed to Casper Simonsen at Kirstein Finans before March 15 .

Technical questions regarding the completion of the online application form should be addressed to Liz Clarke at IPE-Quest.
