Switzerland's HedgePole, a hedge fund service provider, has launched two UCITS indices—one focused on global macro strategies, the other on managed futures/CTAs.
HedgePole says its indices are unique in that they aim to cover all UCITS funds matching the selection criteria to give a “fair, reliable and independent representation of the performance of the relevant strategies.” The company says it will ensure funds meet criteria such as compliance with the UCITS directive. Moreover, it will source NAVs “pro-actively and directly” from the constituent fund managers or their administrators “ensuring that each calculation includes 100% of the underlings’ latest updated NAVs.”

Avec dix stratégies positives sur quinze au sortir d'un trimestre des plus chahutés, le potentiel de diversification offert par l'industrie reste significatif. En l'absence d'un directionnel marqué, les investisseurs reviennent chercher du rendement auprès des fonds alternatifs, notamment d'arbitrage. L'industrie enregistre une collecte nette positive sur le début d'année qui soutient la hausse continue des encours sous gestion : +3,5% sur le premier trimestre (+13% pour les stratégies d'Equity Market Neutral et +7,6% pour les FI Arbitrage)", note Natixis.
