Aberdeen Asset Management: Has Hedge Fund Investing Changed?

clock

Hedge funds have become a popular investment tool among investors in their search for a greater yield coupled with increased diversification and downside protection.

While hedge funds can offer schemes and other institutional investors a set of investment strategies that offer proven diversification benefits, the right sort of governance structure needs to be in place to mitigate risk.
 
Watch our panel debate featuring Daniel Summerfield (Co-Head of Responsible Investment, USS Investment Management Ltd), Neil Dolby (Head of Alternative Operations, Aberdeen Asset Management), Paul Govier (Partner and Head of Investment Funds Group, Maples and Calder) and chaired by Jonathan Stapleton (Editor, Workplace Savings + Benefits and Professional Pensions); who discuss these governance structures; look at what investors are looking for in hedge fund governance; lessons that have been learned from the past and how the industry is placed for the future.
