Alternative asset management firm Tahan Capital Management is gearing up to launch an Asian-focused hedge fund that invests in Asian high yield/distressed securities, credit long/short, and macro strategies.

The Tahan Capital team is led by Ng Yong Ngee. The firm also includes Chia Tse Ern, formerly with GLG and Jabre Capital; Bryan Choo, formerly with Schroders and UBS; Charles Ooi, formerly with HSBC and UBS; and Joseph Lam, formerly with Deutsche Bank and Morgan Stanley.

The hedge fund firm has selected LaCrosse Global Fund Services to provide fund administration, middle office, operations and collateral management services to its new fund.

"We are proud to be appointed as a full-service provider of Tahan Capital’s new fund. The LaCrosse platform is well suited to support its range and complexity, and we are dedicated to working with the team as it expands,” said Celia Choh, LaCrosse’s regional head of Asia.
