Hedge Group Journey
Hedge Equities commenced its operations in 2008 under the visionary leadership of Alex K. Babu. In a short time, the company garnered significant attention among retail investors in Kerala. The presence of Padma Shri Mohanlal further enhanced the brand's credibility, solidifying Hedge as a recognized name in the region.
In 2011, the company ventured into wealth management services, starting with just five employees. Today, this division has flourished, managing assets worth over Rs 2,200 crores for more than 4000 families.
With the overarching goal of promoting financial literacy, the Hedge Group established the Hedge School of Applied Economics. This educational initiative has played a pivotal role in cultivating a cadre of informed investors who employ prudent financial planning and investment strategies, a source of pride for the company.
Concurrently, Hedge launched a magazine dedicated exclusively to equity market investments. Presently, this online magazine is emerging as the preferred financial journal among Malayalis, boasting over 11,000 readers.
In 2014, the group expanded into the NBFC segment. Over time, Hedge Finance Ltd has broadened its services, establishing itself as a leading lender in Kerala, offering a diverse range of loan segments including property, equipment finance, MSME lending, gold loans, and consumer loans. Today, the Hedge Group stands as a trusted financial advisor, providing comprehensive solutions across all financial matters, earning the admiration and trust of its clientele.
