nothing but sounds a lot like they're trying to have an acronym that's an anagram of PDFM (Phillips and Drew - the former asset management arm of UBS in the days before the merger with Swiss Bank).
Could be wrong of course.....

their website offers no help and the email address they have provided for info doesnt work
This was pretty much all I could find on the fund:
http://www.hedgefundintelligence.co...Tritton-quits-for-De-Putron.html?Task=Archive
Charlie Tritton, head of the multi-billion dollar alternative investment business at New Star Asset Management, is leaving to join forces with Peter De Putron’s long-established De Putron Fund Management.
New Star is a pretty good fund right? Makes me think that DPFM must be decent if one of the top guys is moving over?
cheers,
dave

caution - thats almost 2 years old. rather a lot has changed since then..........
Who told you New Star was any good? I don't think it really exists any more does it? The funds started doing crap a couple of years ago so all the portfolio managers started jumping ship. Then last year Duffield had had enough so sold the funds to Henderson Global Investors.

To be honest, I dont really knew if new star was any good. all i knew was that they had been bought by henderson so i just assumed :whistling
there's hardly any info out there about them i.e. what strategies/asset classes they deal with, the main fund managers etc
hmm....

Peter de Putron is a bright boy who used to invest in special sits at IFM Asset Management. Maybe his firm's a family office, hence the lack of information on their website.

Hmm. I know a bloke (Casey) that runs money for me who used to work for them. Top bloke and all their people are pretty good, though management seems pretty paranoid. The guy I know had lawyers harrassing him for months after he quit. Quite a few of their earlier stars have left - some to form their own quant software firm (names? Setayi, Ludder-Thomson, Stewart - all good eggs from what my source says) but they are being sued as well.
If you're going to get a job there, hammer out a decent contract with proper break clauses and bonus protection.

Not sure being sued is that funny. Why the laughter? Are you Mr DePutron?

Weird. Cyrptic sucker eh? Anyway, I reiterate, DPFM is a good place, but watch your back, wear a parachute and know your employment law. Unless you're Depth Trade, in which case just keep sucking in the NO2.
what do you mean 'runs money for me'? what like a CTA
