On January 1 2007, the founders of Battenkill Capital Management launched the Alpine Fund. The goal was to create a hedge fund that would offer strong and consistent returns based on a strictly fundamental investment approach. The Alpine Fund was positioned to capitalize on increased market volatility by applying a discipline approach to portfolio structure and risk management. The Alpine Fund was also organized to provide substantial visibility and clarity to potential investors, by utilizing a straight-forward investment process and offering access to separately managed accounts. Finally, the founders of the Alpine Fund committed to strict accountability with a mandate to place all of their investable assets into the fund.
