Chinese Hedge Funds

By Richard Wilson

China Hedge Fund Industry Trend

As their capital markets become stronger and more mature the average person in China is saving 15% more of what they earn every year. Equities have been on a rally increasing almost 75% so far in 2007 but eventually the market will be mature enough and equities growth outlook choppy enough that diversification into alternative assets will become more important. If you are a hedge fund there may be opportunities to sell and market your products through Chinese-based but American owned banks or financial networks. The WSJ reports that in 2006 there were over 60 hedge funds currently investing in China and according to Eurekahedge this makes up over $4B in assets.

Hedge Fund Third Party Marketing in China

If you are a third party marketer you may be able to differentiate yourself by building those relationships or traveling to China twice a year to get a lay of the land and introduce yourself to important contacts you have there. You could also find a few Chinese hedge funds and offer to represent them here in the United States. Most hedge fund managers in China do speak English but very few have full time marketing and sales support based here in the United States.

Chinese Hedge Funds Resources

The US-China Business Council has more information on statistics related to Chinese hedge funds and investors in China. Other resources include the All About Alpha blog, the hedge fund blog, Albourne Village, and the Fierce Finance newsletter. I also continue to post more articles within the Richard Wilson Hedge Fund Blog on Chinese hedge fund trends.
