IF YOUR TARGET = END INVESTORS
Long term investors were badly burned in 2008 but continue to have faith in those hedge funds that willingly undertake structural reform and adapt to meet the challenges investors currently face.
If you are a hedge fund that is posting strong returns but are struggling to attract positive inflows then you need to cast your net wider and meet with as many investors as possible.
HEDGE 2009 gives you a platform to stand apart
from your competitors and the opportunity to get
your message to market in an unbiased manner.
If you have an offering that can help investors
increase their levels of diversification and are looking to grow your business then you should consider sponsorship of HEDGE 2009.
|
IF YOUR TARGET = HEDGE FUNDS or FoHFS
Many funds have experienced large redemptions
through a combination of waning confidence,
greater demand for liquidity among investors, and the so called “ATM” effect.
This is putting huge pressure on hedge funds to find new business and this means:
* Incorporating new investment tools and strategies into their fund offerings that make a convincing case for higher returns
* Investing in the necessary technology and
systems to demonstrate to potential investors
sound risk management and operations
practices
If you have an offering that can help them and are looking to grow your business then you need to consider sponsoring HEDGE 2009.
