With almost $3 trillion in assets and the freedom to invest opportunistically worldwide hedge funds have become one of the most important marketmoving forces of the last few decades. This panel brings together leading founders of hedge funds and asset managers for a conversation about the evolution of the industry. Some of the questions that will be addressed: With more hedge funds than ever before, how can a manager generate meaningful returns? Are fee structures likely to change significantly with increasing pressure from institutional clients?
