In sharp contrast, the presence of performance outliers during the 1998 period suggested a pattern of wider diffusion and generally more volatile market environment.    <\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>      A changing investor profile from high net worth individuals to large-scale institutions may explain why lower levels of volatility are the trend as investors\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u201e\u00a2 risk appetite declines.    <\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>  Credit Suisse\/Tremont industry commentaries and publications are available on a on the Research and News section of our website, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hedgeindex.com\/\">www.hedgeindex.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Credit Suisse\/Tremont today released its latest industry commentary, Emerging Markets Trends in the Hedge Fund Industry, and revealed positive news for hedge funds that invest in emerging markets.
