CTA Intelligence has nominated Systematic Alpha Management, LLC as the CTA Management Firm of the Year, while its flagship Systematic Alpha Futures Fund, Ltd., Class B received nominations in the following 2 categories: Best CTA Long Term Performance under $500m and Best Short-Term Trader.

CTA Intelligence US Performance Awards 2014 will be held in New York on February 27, 2014. The inaugural CTA Intelligence Performance Awards will recognize and reward those CTAs who have successfully outperformed their competitors over the last 12 months, as well as over the last 3 - 5 years.

Systematic Alpha Futures Fund, Ltd. (Class B) has previously won the HFMWeek US Performance Award twice, first in 2009 in the category Best Managed Futures (CTA) Newcomer, and for the second time in 2012 in the category Best Managed Futures (CTA) under $250m.

"We are honored to be recognized once again among the best managers in the managed futures space, which is very competitive," noted Peter Kambolin, CEO of Systematic Alpha Management. "The receipt of 3 nominations, and especially CTA Management Firm of the Year, is the recognition of our ongoing tireless effort to offer our clients a unique market neutral CTA program that is significantly different from classical trend-following CTAs," noted Dr. Alexei Chekhlov, SAM's Head of Research and Portfolio Manager.
