State Street Corporation, a provider of financial services to institutional investors, released a “State Street Vision Report on Hedge Funds” as part of its series of proprietary reports designed to advance the dialogue around key themes and trends within the financial services industry.
The new vision paper on hedge funds offers an overview of the impact of rising institutional allocations to alternative investment vehicles, and the implications of this trend for institutions and the hedge fund industry going forward.
“As part of the ongoing series designed to provide the industry with timely insights, this vision paper responds to a need for greater understanding of all aspects of hedge fund investing,” said Jay Hooley, vice chairman of State Street. “Given the results of our third institutional hedge fund study released last month, it is evident that institutional hedge fund investing is becoming less ‘alternative.’ We hope this new report will help industry professionals enhance their knowledge of hedge funds and navigate the risk and opportunities available in these important investment products.”
