Opalesque Industry Update - The gross return of the SS&C GlobeOp Hedge Fund Performance Index for March 2016 measured 0.90%. Hedge fund flows as measured by the SS&C GlobeOp Capital Movement Index declined 0.95% in April. “Reflecting typical seasonal patterns, SS&C GlobeOp’s Capital Movement Index declined in April 2016, coming in at -0.95%, compared to 0.75% for March 2016. However, it should be noted that the -0.95% for April 2016 compares favorably on a year-over-year basis to -1.20% for April of 2015,” said Bill Stone, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, SS&C Technologies. “In particular, the year-over-year comparison was marked by relatively lower outflows this past month, the ninth consecutive month of lower outflows on a year-over-year basis. This indicates investors have remained committed to their hedge fund allocations during a period of generally increased market volatility.” The SS&C GlobeOp Hedge Fund Performance Index is an asset-weighted, independent monthly window on hedge fund performance.
