RANKINGS Feb. 23, 2016 Bloomberg Brief Hedge Funds 3 RANKINGS 2015's Top-Performing Funds With $1 Billion or More in Assets Bloomberg's rankings of the top-performing hedge funds are based on funds' net returns for 2015. Because hedge-fund returns can be difficult to obtain, our lists are not all-inclusive. In addition, some of the numbers were difficult to verify. Unless the information came from Bloomberg data or the hedge-fund firm itself, we tried to verify it with other sources, including investors and other fund databases. All returns are for full-year 2015; fund assets are the latest available. Onshore and offshore assets were combined for a number of funds, while figures for other funds were only for the larger or better-performing class of the fund.

In 2015, the most tumultuous year in Chinese equities in a decade, Jiang’s Golden China Fund returned almost 22 percent. It joins three other Asia-based funds near the top of Bloomberg’s ranking of the 50 best-performing hedge funds worldwide with assets of $1 billion or more last year. The strong performance by Segantii Capital Management, Sylebra Capital Management, Greenwoods and Tybourne Capital Management (HK) shows that the industry has matured in the volatility last year.

  • Patient Capital Outperformance
    Patient Capital Outperformance: The Investment Skill of High Active Share Managers Who Trade Infrequently Martijn Cremers Ankur Pareek University of Notre Dame Rutgers Business School First draft: December 2013 This draft: September 2014 This paper documents that among high Active Share portfolios – whose holdings differ substantially from the holdings of their benchmark – only those with patient investment strategies (i.e., with long stock holding durations of at least 2 years) outperform their benchmarks on average. Funds trading frequently generally underperform, regardless of Active Share. Among funds that infrequently trade, it is crucial to separate closet index funds – whose holdings largely overlap with the benchmark – from truly active funds. The average outperformance of the most patient and distinct portfolios equals 2.30% per year – net of costs – for retail mutual funds. Stocks held by patient and active institutions in general outperform by 2.22% per year and by hedge funds in particular by 3.64% per year, both gross of costs.

The previous literature has documented that, on average, the long‐term net performance of actively managed mutual funds is similar to the performance of their benchmark (with actively managed funds generally underperforming their benchmarks but without strong statistical significance on average).

  • The JOBS Act at Year One: a Changing Hedge Fund Communications Landscape
    The JOBS Act at Year One: A Changing Hedge Fund Communications Landscape The private world of hedge funds is looking more like Madison Avenue. Hedge funds today are everywhere – in daily headlines, social media, public web sites, live TV coverage, and even highly visible Las Vegas bashes. They are also increasingly in the portfolios of institutional and retail investors. Once a shadowy, inaccessible and little understood part of the asset management world, hedge funds are growing, diversifying, extending product lines, acquiring competitors, targeting new markets, stepping up client relations – in short, acting more and more like the large, sophisticated businesses they’ve become. Driving and supporting this business transition is a changing attitude toward and approach to marketing communications. As hedge funds have grown to $2-trillion-plus in assets, they are tackling issues and opportunities like brand, visibility and reputation, all in the face of stiff competition. September 23, 2014, marks the first anniversary of the enactment of the Jumpstart Our Businesses (JOBS) Act, and provides an opportunity to look at how hedge fund communications have evolved. The JOBS Act was designed to spark U.S. economic growth in part by allowing hedge funds to solicit accredited investors. As a result, hedge funds are now allowed to employ tactics such as engaging the media, building accessible web sites, advertising and even social media. And while neither we nor others point to the JOBS Act as the sole driving force behind the implementation of new communications strategies by hedge funds in recent years, no one denies that these changes are taking place.

  • Hedge Fund Managers, Illustrating That Running Successful Hedge Funds Can Be a Very Lucrative Business
    17 May 2016 Executive Summary New research by SCM Direct reveals 4.8 million UK individuals, are invested in hedge funds via their pension schemes. Shockingly, these pension savers are being charged c.36 times the fees of low cost alternatives, whilst receiving as little as 1/3rd of the performance they would from a low cost index- based strategy. SCM estimates that members of UK pension schemes paid c. £2.85 billion in fees and charges via their hedge fund investments in 20151. These significant costs are not being fully disclosed to pension schemes, or their underlying beneficiaries, resulting in savers being unaware of the risks and returns associated with having their saving in this asset class. Findings - SCM Direct research into hedge funds: - Costs: UK pension funds are paying up to 36 times the amount in total fees and charges to invest via hedge funds compared to alternative low cost index funds. - Risks: Many hedge funds are more concentrated and less liquid than simpler, low cost index funds. In June 2015, the FCA analysed 52 hedge fund firms managing $265 billion from the UK. The FCA stated ‘since the financial crisis, institutional investors (largely pension funds and endowment-like institutions) have become the largest source of new money for hedge funds. High net worth individuals and family offices now only own 13% of hedge fund assets.’ - Returns: Over the last 5 years a simple 60/40 strategy or the strategy proposed by Warren Buffett for his own legacy2, via index funds, would have beaten the average hedge fund return by 3 to 4 times.

    2009 Family Offices Group.com The Family Office Report is a free resource created by the Family Offices Group for family office professionals and those businesses that work with family offices. Sponsored by: FamilyOfficesGroup.com FamilyOfficesDatabase.com Sponsored by: FamilyOfficesGroup.com | FamilyOfficesDatabase.com Page 2 Single Family Office Investment Performance Just found a recent article on the performance of investments made of single-family offices claiming that their returns were likely below those of other high net worth individuals. First off it is important to note when discussing single family offices that they need not relay their performance to anyone and often will not return the phone calls of journalists, publicists or surveys seeking information. This means that any reporting on this sector is skewed at best. I believe the article noted below to be off base in several ways. First, single family offices conduct more due diligence on hedge fund investments than their high net worth peers so if we are really comparing apples to apples here it would be hard to believe that those who conducted 4-10x as much research on their investments would perform worse in the markets. Second, single-family office HNW individuals are more likely to have their investments more diversified and invested in less straight equity portfolios. While diversification may not have helped much over the past year it could prevent 60%+ drops in portfolio value seen within some concentrated equity portfolios. The last reason why I believe this article is off base is because it refers to alternative investments made by single-family offices as a negative aspect of them.

  • Reforming Pensions While Retaining Shareholder Voice
    REFORMING PENSIONS WHILE RETAINING SHAREHOLDER VOICE DAVID H. WEBBER* ABSTRACT Public pension and labor union funds have been the driving force in diversified shareholder activism. They have also fended off attacks on jobs and proactively created jobs for fund contributors. These funds currently represent almost $4 trillion in assets over which workers have substantial control. That worker control—and the collective nature of defined benefit pension plans—is the necessary precondition for their shareholder activism. Both worker control and collective investment are directly threatened by the rise of defined contribution funds, particularly by well-funded efforts to promote the 401(k) in the public sector, the last bastion of the traditional pension plan (unlike traditional pensions, defined contribution funds do not guarantee fixed payments to retirees). Due to a purported nationwide underfunding crisis for public pensions in particular—a crisis whose scale, scope, and even existence is contested by economists and actuaries—many states and cities have wholly or partly abandoned, or are contemplating abandoning, collectively managed defined benefit pension plans in favor of 401(k) plans that are outsourced to existing private mutual funds. Far more than legal reforms, like changing shareholder voting thresholds or the prospect of mandatory arbitration provisions, these reforms pose an existential threat to the ability of workers to wield the collective shareholder voice they now wield via defined benefit pension plans. This Article does not concede that traditional pensions should be reformed out of existence. There are excellent reasons to defend them, and excellent reasons to attack defined contribution funds. That said, to the extent that traditional pensions continue to be reformed out of existence, this Article illustrates that there are defined contribution alternatives to the 401(k) that would still preserve collective shareholder voice.
