Managers Confident of Global Growth

October 3, 2021 James Heinsman Economic Barometer

Hedge fund managers around the world have overwhelmingly indicated their confidence for continued growth despite the current market volatility and the ongoing Covid pandemic.

A recent study by the Alternative Investment Management Association’s (AIMA) Global Hedge Fund Confidence Index, 99% of managers believe that their prospects will continue to grow and show increased second-quarter results.

Geography had little effect on these findings: managers in EMEA, the UK, and the Asia Pacific all showed confidence. Only U.S. based managers showed slight hesitation because of Delta variant concerns, but they all viewed it as a “temporary setback with travel expected to recover strongly”.
