Be a leader...discover tomorrow's most advanced hedge fund
investing techniques today!

Swiss hedge fund investors are arguably the most sophisticated in the world. Long established as Europe’s leading allocators to alternative assets thanks to Switzerland’s renowned private banking industry, the Swiss hedge fund market is growing fast, opening the door to exciting new opportunities.

Recent surveys show that 25% of Swiss pension funds allocate to hedge funds. At the same time, the need to achieve target yields and meet long-term liabilities is stimulating even greater interest in hedge funds as a potential solution to these challenges, prompting Swiss investors to push for investment regulations to be relaxed.

Hedge Funds World Zurich ensures that Swiss hedge fund investors are fully prepared for these demands to maintain their position as world leaders. The most influential industry figures will elaborate their strategic vision of hedge fund investing and lively debates on key issues will offer unique insight from all perspectives. All our speakers are carefully selected experts who will demonstrate the most advanced investment techniques in the context of real life case studies.

Only by understanding the hedge fund market of tomorrow can you make the right decisions today.
