HedgeCo.net – Assets in global hedge funds have now reached more than $2 trillion according to new research compiled by HedgeFund Intelligence, publisher of the newsletters and databases of EuroHedge, AsiaHedge, South AfricaHedge and InvestHedge, as well as the U.S.-based magazine Absolute Return.<\/p>\n
The findings of this research which is drawn from a comprehensive database of hedge funds globally, shows a rise in global hedge fund assets from just over $1.5 trillion in January 2006 to $2.079 trillion by January of this year – a rate of growth in assets of just over 30% in the past year.<\/p>\n
According to the latest research from InvestHedge – which tracks investors in hedge funds – an increasing proportion of this money is coming from institutional investors, with the majority of the assets allocated to hedge funds (over $1 trillion) now coming via the fund of funds sector.<\/p>\n
The HedgeFund Intelligence research process was completed with the latest EuroHedge asset survey, which showed that assets in European hedge funds had reached almost $460 billion by January of this year – up from $325 billion the year before, and at the fastest rate of growth in the past year (about 40%) among the major regions around the world.<\/p>\n
The latest AsiaHedge asset survey showed that combined assets in Asia-Pacific hedge funds had reached $147 billion (including Asia-Pacific funds managed from the U.S. and Europe) – up from $115 billion the year before.<\/p>\n
In the U.S., HedgeFund Intelligence calculated that total hedge fund assets have now reached almost $1.5 trillion – including some $1.198 trillion accounted for the Absolute Return Billion Dollar Club alone (which was up from about $850 billion a year earlier).<\/p>\n
After adjusting for a small amount of double-counting (such as for funds managed in one region but investing into another), the combined assets of hedge funds in the U.S., Europe and the Asia-Pacific now stand at $2.006 trillion. Adding in other regions – including Canada, Latin America and South Africa – takes the combined total to $2.079 trillion.<\/p>\n
