The concept

Market demand

Our research shows that investors would increase their allocation to hedge funds if they had greater access to transparency; something that they do identify as being a benefit of managed account platforms.

Many US investors are currently considering investing using managed accounts BUT see an adverse manager selection process (as a result of the demand for transparency) as a barrier.

Implications

If we consider that;

“Not all hedge fund managers agree to exercise their strategy via a managed account. But the number of these managers is actually decreasing rapidly” (Lars Jaeger, Partners Group, 2005 – keynote speaker at Managed Accounts Europe).

...Then it is clear that managed account platforms are falling short of convincing investors that their skepticism over manager selection is largely unfounded. 

Thus, also considering that US investors have explicitly told us they are willing to learn more about managed accounts, the market is ready for the big players of managed accounts to come to the fore; educating investors and showcasing their expertise..
