abstract:Phoenix Fund (Фонд "Феникс") is a Russian wildlife and forest conservation organization serving regions of the Russian Far East, especially Primorski Krai and Khabarovsk Krai. This area includes globally significant biodiversity, including the Amur Leopard, Siberian Tiger, and other predators, as well as a number of recognized Protected Areas including national parks, wildlife refuges, and nature reserves.
Virtus Investment Partners is a lucky casualty of the financial crisis--a sleepy mutual fund company spun off from insurer Phoenix Companies on Dec. 31, 2008, just as financial markets neared their depths.
