Identifying the Right Funds
Our expertise and long-term commitment to hedge fund investing means we’re able to identify smaller and emerging managers early. We believe this is a key factor in sourcing managers who are most likely to succeed over the long term.

Why Consider Hedge Funds Today?
Hedge funds offer a strategic opportunity for investors willing to navigate their complexities, with significant diversification and growth prospects that stand out from traditional asset classes.
Hear from our investment specialists on the primary risks associated with hedge funds, and four actionable guidelines for effectively incorporating these strategies into portfolios.
Our Approach
We believe that our wealth of proprietary data combined with in-house expertise gives our clients a competitive advantage in manager selection, which is especially critical given the wide dispersion of returns between individual hedge funds.
Around the globe, our specialists are searching to find and invest in hedge fund managers that we believe offer a clear edge in generating sustainable alpha. Before our Hedge Fund Ratings Committee deems any fund suitable for our clients, our business risk management team evaluates the manager’s operations platform and processes to ensure they align with the manager’s investment strategy and products.
50+ Years of Market Presence
With a large number of sophisticated clients, we’re able to use our market presence to negotiate favorable fees and terms with more than 100 hedge fund managers*. These fee reductions can directly impact your portfolio’s net return.
We can also help clients develop direct relationships with managers, many of whom we have worked with since the 1970s. We offer clients the opportunity to forge lasting relationships with these managers, as well as to build reputations as desirable investors.
