The closed world of hedge funds is taking another step towards the mainstream with the arrival of a new index and greater availability of independent research.
Standard&Poor’s introduction of its S&P Hedge Fund Index is the first attempt to offer a transparent benchmark for hedge funds.
The index contains 40 funds, divided into three sub-indices: arbitrage, event driven and tactical. These in turn cover nine different strategies of macro, equity long/short, managed futures, special situations, merger arbitrage, distressed, fixed-income arbitrage, convertible arbitrage and equity market neutral.
