Tom Kehoe, Global Head of Research and Communications at AIMA, said: “The past 12 months have been among the most challenging for businesses in many years. Confidence levels among hedge funds are further curtailed by the gloomy prognosis for the global economy as well as additional industry headwinds in the shape of increased regulatory action.”
“Reasons for hedge funds to be optimistic over the coming year include their ability to best manage risk amid the volatility being witnessed across global markets and an expectation of greater clarity around many of the regulatory proposals unveiled last year.”
