(Bloomberg) The hedge fund industry in Brazil had its best year ever in 2017, with falling interest rates and investor confidence spurring expectations the trend will continue. Brazilian “multi-market funds,” similar to global hedge funds, posted net inflows of 97 billion reais ($30 billion) last year — almost five times the 2016 total and the most for any type of fund, according to Anbima, Brazil’s capital-markets association. The entire fund industry’s inflows more than doubled to a record 263.8 billion reais as investors shifted from bonds in search of higher yields, Anbima data show.
