In the week ending October 7th 2022, a study revealed that forty-two percent of hedge fund managers expect LPs to increase investment allocation to long/short and global in the next 12 months. According to a new survey from advisory and accounting firm EisnerAmper, this is a decrease from 2021's survey where the strategy received 67% of the vote. Other strategies primed for LP investment this year, include event-driven (33%), credit (29%), and quant (19%).

Investors pulled $32 billion from hedge funds in the second quarter of 2022, spooked by inflation, geopolitical tensions and the war in Ukraine, according to a report from data provider Preqin.

Meanwhile, the pace of hedge fund net redemptions slowed in July 2022 to -$16.88 billion (-0.35% of industry assets), according to the Barclay Fund Flow Indicator published by BarclayHedge, a division of Backstop Solutions. A $124.13 billion trading profit during the month brought total hedge fund industry assets to more than $4.99 trillion as July ended.

Based on a sample of 389 hedge funds (accounting for approx. US$3tn in assets) that participated in the AIMA's Hedge Fund Confidence Index for Q3 2022, the average measure of confidence is +25.4 - up from +17.8 in Q2 - the highest average confidence score recorded since the HFCI began in 2020, and the Scotiabank Canadian Hedge Fund Index ended August 2022 up 1.17% MOM on an asset-weighted basis and up 0.22% MOM on an equal-weighted basis.
