Opalesque – Reports are conflicting on Asia’s role in the development of the hedge fund industry as a whole. While there were studies, particularly from Singapore-based research firm GFIA claiming that Asia is now emerging as a hedge fund center, other studies are pointing out that Asia is actually lagging compared to its Western counterpart.
A report by The Financial Times said that while European investors are gradually allocating again to hedge funds, Asian investors have not caught up with the trend.
