The Australian – Global hedge funds made an estimated 9.73 per cent in returns for the year to June 24, according to figures published by data provider Hedge Fund Research.
Individual managers, including Britain’s Henderson Global Investors, have seen funds rise by more than 60 per cent this year. In the wake of these results, the £1.8 billion ($3.68bn) Avon Pension Fund has been advised to stick with its 10 per cent allocation to hedge funds after putting them under review, while the Clwyd Pension Fund said it would keep 5 per cent in funds of hedge funds and is looking for a single-manager hedge fund.
