NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--H/Advisors Abernathy, a leading strategic communications advisor, is proud to announce that Senior Vice President Sydney Gever has been recognized among the 50 Leading Women in Hedge Funds in 2024 by The Hedge Fund Journal and EY. This is the first time a professional from an external communications firm has been named to the list.
This is the twelfth edition of The Hedge Fund Journal’s “50 Leading Women in Hedge Funds” report and the eleventh published in association with EY, recognizing “exceptionally talented high achievers in the hedge fund industry.” Since 2009, the Hedge Fund Journal has surveyed alternative asset management firms globally to support the steady and continuing growth of women in senior roles throughout the industry.
Ms. Gever works with U.S. based hedge funds, global investment firms and their managers on media relations, investor communications and public positioning initiatives that advance and protect their reputations, at times in partnership with the global H/ Advisors network. This recognition highlights her investor-first approach to supporting managers at all stages of their life cycles: new funds preparing to launch, smaller managers looking to build an external profile for the first time as they build a track record, and well-established firms looking to safely reshape their external profiles as their businesses evolve.
She also has ample experience supporting managers on their wind-downs and returns of investor capital, constructivist engagements with portfolio companies, political matters, philanthropy and the increasing convergence of business, social and political issues. In addition to advising hedge funds and other asset managers, she provides strategic counsel to public and private corporations across industries - with particular expertise in pharmaceuticals and consumer goods - on various strategic planning, profile-raising and corporate positioning initiatives, as well as complex matters including M&A, shareholder activism, leadership changes and sensitive crisis situations.
H/Advisors Abernathy has one of the industry’s largest and most experienced hedge fund communications practices, advising blue-chip clients with more than $150 billion under management. The practice represents clients of all sizes and strategies, from smaller, single-strategy funds to larger, international hedge fund firms and some of the most well-known family offices.
