More investor eyes are trained on Asia than ever before, and the hedge funds listed on Alpha’s Asia 25 ranking are enjoying the attention.
The firms that appear on the Asia 25 – Alpha’s list of Asia’s 25 biggest hedge funds – are learning that home field does indeed provide a substantial advantage. As Asia increasingly finds itself a region of interest for investors and money managers who seek investment opportunities there, the continent’s resident hedge funds are drawing upon their native roots to flourish. Together, Asia’s 25 biggest hedge funds controlled $35.5 billion in assets as of March 31, 2007; that’s up almost 60 percent from when Alpha last ranked Asia’s top firms at the end of 2005.
