Will the credit crisis present good opportunities in Spain?

Since 2006, we have followed the progress of the market from theory to practice and as the hedge funds industry enters a new investment era, Hedge Funds World España 2009 will assess, review and discuss the challenges and successes in the backdrop of global market distress.

What shocks have we seen in 2008?

The fall of the investment bank, bans on short selling, unprecedented European and US bank bailouts and the loss of leverage have resulted in the demise in healthy returns of many hedge funds. 

Spain’s most talented hedge fund managers show resilience

Yet despite the shocks that have wreaked havoc in global markets a cluster of Spain’s pure single hedge fund managers have proved themselves to beat the market crisis, maintaining returns between 8% - 12%. 

What will it take for investor confidence to return?

International investors have wasted no time in taking a closer look at “made in Spain” in search of those returns that are beating the market crisis.
