Emerging Trends in Asian Hedge Funds
Tanuj Khosla of 3 Degrees Asset Management has contributed an interesting article to Business Insider. Khosla outlines the current emerging trends for Asian hedge funds. He gives a nice overview of Asian hedge funds and points out the major changes in Asian hedge funds.
If somebody ever wrote a book titled ‘History of hedge funds in Asia’ in 2030, I can bet every dollar in my pocket that he (or she) shall refer to 2010 & 2011 as the defining years in the evolution of the industry in this part of the world.
Or let us say that hypothetically there was a hedge fund manager with over a decade of experience in fund management who closed down his hedge fund in Asia in 2009 and shifted to Antarctica.
