Hedge funds delivered a 1.25% gross return in July, according to the SS&C GlobeOp Hedge Fund Performance Index, while the SS&C GlobeOp Capital Movement Index showed net inflows of 0.63% in August – a sharp improvement on the 0.17% seen a year earlier.
Bill Stone, Chairman and CEO of SS&C Technologies, said slowing economic growth and ongoing tariff negotiations are fuelling market uncertainty, creating abundant opportunities for hedge funds to attract assets through alpha generation and attractive risk-adjusted returns.”
The Performance Index, based on asset-weighted data from funds administered by SS&C GlobeOp, provides an independent snapshot of monthly hedge fund results and has historically shown a low correlation to major equity benchmarks. The Capital Movement Index, which tracks actual subscriptions and redemptions, now stands at 126.99 points — up 2.8 points year-on-year.
The next update is due on 12 September.
