Jason Cope has joined Canadian multistrategy hedge fund manager Polar Asset Management Partners as head of global fixed income and rates.
It is a new position, a spokesperson said.
Based in Toronto, Cope’s responsibilities include “leading and accelerating the growth of Polar’s rates and credit strategy business,” said a news release March 6.
Cope most recently served as executive managing director and head of global fixed income at TD Securities.
TD Securities could not be immediately reached for further details.
As of Dec. 31, Polar had $6.1 billion in assets under management across four primary offerings — its flagship Polar Multi-Strategy Fund, a U.S. equity long/short strategy known as Polar Long/Short Fund, Polar Micro-Cap Fund and Polar CRS Fund-1.
