Fund selection?

Fund selection? | Gestion alternative UCITS III | Scoop.it
Low returns come from investing in unskilled funds. Static beta-based asset allocation fails when stock markets don't compensate for volatility and most bonds offer insufficient yield for their default risk.

Le développement des hedge funds Ucits

Le développement des hedge funds Ucits | Gestion alternative UCITS III | Scoop.it

Si a priori, la gestion des hedge funds est incompatible avec les principes de diversification et les restrictions d’investissement que l’on retrouve dans les fonds Ucits, les avantages bien connus de ces derniers et les freins au développement des premiers ont favorisé depuis quelques années l’émergence d’une nouvelle catégorie de fonds dont Luxembourg a su tirer parti, les Newcits.

Le terme Newcits est un néologisme issu de l’acronyme Ucits et désigne l’utilisation de stratégies alternatives dans un cadre Ucits. On parle aussi communément de «hedge fund Ucits» ou d’«alternative Ucits».

Les bénéfices des fonds Ucits sont bien connus, particulièrement à Luxembourg. Ces produits attrayants bénéficient d’une grande liquidité, d’une transparence et d’une stabilité réglementaire. Ils constituent, de fait, un véhicule de choix en termes de commercialisation puisqu’ils permettent, parmi leurs nombreux avantages, une distribution transfrontalière. Ils sont, en outre, devenus un label internationalement reconnu, dans la mesure où plus de 40% d’entre eux sont distribués en dehors de l’Europe.

Les hedge funds, quant à eux, ayant beaucoup souffert suite à la crise de 2008 où ils ont cumulé les problèmes (performances médiocres, illiquidité et cas de fraude), ont vu leur demande s’effondrer en même temps que l’intérêt des régulateurs allait croissant.
