Bobsguide – Hedge funds are planning an array of new strategies to continue to provide higher returns for investors, according to a leading expert.
Fund manager PSolve Alternative Investments told Reuters that funds are being forced to devise new ways of generating money because of investor demands for higher returns and are turning to the loans, oil derivatives and agricultural futures markets as a result.
Hedge funds are looking away from traditional markets, such as stocks and bonds, due to the growing number of players diluting investment returns in recent years.
PSolve Alternative Investments managing director, Soondra Appavoo, explained: “Hedge funds have barely scratched the surface of global financial assets … They can trade anything … As long as you’ve got the right guys in the right strategies in the right spaces, they will make money.”
