World's biggest hedge fund returns found in Singapore


SINGAPORE (Bloomberg): On most mornings, Chong Chin Eai starts his day with a jog through Singapore's Botanic Gardens. After taking his son to school, he trades futures on his laptop at home until it's time for lunch, after which he might have a massage or perhaps a nap.

If that sounds snoozy, Chong's returns are anything but. His Vanda Global Fund Ltd, started with US$24 million (S$32.5 million) from friends and family and named after Singapore's national orchid, is the world's best-performing hedge fund this year, gaining more than 300 per cent.
