Opalesque broadens multi media with Opalesque Radio focussing on Risk and Portfolio Allocation

Zurich, 09th November 2010: Opalesque, the premium provider of alternative investment news, information and analysis, has broadened its multimedia offering with the launch of Opalesque Radio on its website www.opalesque.com.

Almost a year after successfully launching Opalesque TV, Opalesque Radio has been specifically designed to share audio alternative investment intelligence in a mobile (MP3 download), “Customise the Conversation” format. Launched, managed and moderated by Sona Blessing, this bi-weekly research feature with academics, experts and industry insiders will primarily focus on and delve deep into Risk (identification, management and mitigation issues) and Portfolio Allocation related issues (topical, tactical, strategic).

Radio Feature One discusses “Fact or fiction?”: Investing in private equity - does being patient still pay a premium? with Cyril Demaria, an authority on private equity, who collaborates regularly as an expert with the SECA, AFIC and EVCA, and among others is author of ‘Introduction to Private Equity’ (Wiley, May 2010).

Based on a sponsorship (advertising) model and freely accessible to all those visiting the Opalesque website, Opalesque Radio will simultaneously reach Opalesque’s readership base that comprises 50,000 subscribed users. Opalesque users include the top 100 hedge funds, the top 10 hedge fund administrators, auditors, prime brokers, law firms, investors and allocators including some of the world’s largest pension, endowments, institutional players, family offices, wealth managers, ultra and high net worth individuals, consultants and academics.

About Opalesque:
In 2003, with the publication of its daily Alternative Market Briefing, Opalesque successfully launched an information revolution in the hedge fund media space: "Opalesque changed the world by bringing transparency where there was opacity and by delivering an accurate professional reporting service." - Nigel Blanchard, Culross. This hybrid financial news service, which combines proprietary industry news stories and filtered third party reports, has been credited by many industry insiders with delivering precise, accurate, and vital information to a notoriously guarded audience.

Each week, Opalesque sends out over 700,000 editions of its seventeen publications to a global readership in over 170 countries. Opalesque is the only daily hedge fund publisher which is actually read by the elite managers themselves (http://www.opalesque.com/op_testimonials.html).
