Preqin Special Report: Asia-Pacific The Asia-Pacific Opportunity Asia-Pacific as a destination for hedge fund management has been expanding rapidly over the past few years; over 2014 alone industry assets in the region grew by almost 3. Much of this growth has been driven by the growing base of institutional investors in the region, from large sovereign wealth funds through to small local pension schemes, that have increasingly begun to turn to hedge funds to help meet portfolio liabilities and long-term investment objectives. Recent regulatory reforms that have swept across the region have enabled both fund managers and investors alike to ramp up their activity in the hedge fund space, and this rapid growth is expected to continue over the next few years as more regions for hedge fund activity emerge within Asia-Pacific. In this report we look at the state of the hedge fund industry in Asia-Pacific by examining both local funds and those from beyond its shores investing in the region. We also take a closer look at investors from Asia-Pacific using data taken from Preqin s award-winning Hedge Fund Investor Profiles online service and the results of investor interviews carried out at the end of 2014.

Preqin Special Report: Asia-Pacific Overview of Asia-Pacific Asia-Pacific, as a centre for hedge funds, is expanding rapidly. Australia, Singapore and Hong Kong lead the way as the principal financial centres in the region; however, new regions for hedge fund investment have emerged over the past five years as a result of a changing economic and regulatory landscape. In this section we examine the industry within Asia- Pacific, and take a closer look at hedge funds located outside its borders but with a focus on investment in the region. Asia-Pacific Adds $33bn in 2014 As of 31 December 2014, Asia-Pacific-based hedge funds represented $145bn of the $3.02tn in global industry assets (Fig. 1). The Asia-Pacific hedge fund industry is growing rapidly; from 2013 to 2014, the industry accumulated an additional $33bn in capital, a 29% growth over the 12 months ending 31 December 2014. Hong Kong, Australia and Singapore Are the Established Centres for in Asia-Pacific Fig. 2, taken from the 2015 Preqin Global Hedge Fund Report, shows the leading 10 countries globally in terms of the assets under management of the hedge funds based in that region. Three countries within Asia-Pacific Hong Kong, Australia and Singapore are in this group of leading locations for hedge fund management, with Hong Kong representing the larger amount of assets ($61bn). In fact, the combined assets of the funds within Singapore, Australia and Hong Kong represent 87% of all assets in Asia-Pacific-based hedge funds. The largest hedge fund manager in the region, Platinum Asset Management, is based in Australia (Fig. 4). In fact, nine of the 10 largest fund managers in Asia- Pacific are based in either Singapore, Hong Kong or Australia. Asia-Pacific-based hedge fund managers account for 65% of all hedge fund managers in the industry that manage Asia-Pacificfocused hedge funds. Of the remaining 35%, groups outside the region which run funds focused on the region, more than half are based in North America (56%), with 4 headquartered in Europe and in Rest of World (Fig. 5). Equity Strategies Dominate the Asia-Pacific Hedge Fund Landscape Equity-based hedge fund strategies are the most commonly utilized strategy among fund managers with a focus on Asia- Pacific; 6 of funds based within Asia-Pacific utilize an equitybased approach, and 55% of funds investing in Asia-Pacific from other regions also invest primarily as an equity strategy (Fig. 6). Fund managers investing in Asia-Pacific from beyond the region are more likely to employ a macro strategy when investing in the region compared to local funds. Eighty-six percent of Asia-Pacific-focused hedge fund vehicles managed by local managers are structured as single-manager hedge funds (Fig. 7). However, fund managers investing in the region from beyond its borders employ a greater variety of structures when investing in Asia-Pacific. Seventeen percent of non-asia-pacific-based fund managers invest in the region through fund of hedge funds products; these funds are a key way for investors from outside Asia-Pacific to gain exposure to these markets through a fund which may be managed from the US or Europe. The regulatory European UCITS wrapper is another product used by managers from beyond Asia-Pacific to create hedge fund products investing in the region; of funds investing in Asia-Pacific from outside the region are structured as UCITS funds.

Preqin Special Report: Asia-Pacific Local Funds Outnumber their Global Counterparts Fig. 8 shows the number of funds launched each year with a focus on Asia-Pacific. The region showed significant growth as a destination for hedge fund investment from 2005, reaching a high of 186 Asia-Pacific-focused fund launches in 2010. The number of fund launches with a focus on the region fell in 2013 and 2014; this is a trend that has been seen on a global basis, with fewer funds being launched in these years than at the start of the decade (please see the 2015 Preqin Global Hedge Fund Report for more details). Until 2005, it was predominantly funds from outside Asia- Pacific that were launched to focus on the region; however, from this year onwards, there was a rapid proliferation of funds based in the region investing in local markets. In 2004, 47% of all Asia- Pacific-focused hedge funds launched were managed by Asia- Pacific-based managers; this share jumped to 74% in 2014.

Preqin Special Report: Asia-Pacific Overview of Asia-Pacific Hedge Fund Performance Riding on the wave of economic growth in the region, Asia-Pacific-focused hedge funds have generally performed better than other hedge funds globally. This is especially so for managers based in Asia-Pacific, which tended to do significantly better than managers based outside the region as they leverage their local knowledge. Asia-Pacific-focused funds managed by Asia-Pacific-based managers also tend to provide better risk-adjusted returns than all other hedge funds and significantly greater risk-adjusted returns than Asia-Pacific-focused hedge funds managed by managers based outside the region. Asia-Pacific Outperform their Global Counterparts Preqin s Hedge Fund Analyst shows that hedge funds focusing on Asia-Pacific outperformed the Preqin All-Strategies Hedge Fund benchmark in 2014, as well as over a two-, three- and five-year basis (Fig. 9). Fig. 10 shows the rolling 12-month returns of hedge funds based on the regional focus of the fund. Asia-Pacific-focused hedge funds outperformed hedge funds focused on other regions for the years ending December 2013 and December 2014. The impact of the US Federal Reserve beginning tapering its QE programme in December 2013 led to some of the drop in performance at the start of 2014, as currencies and stock markets in emerging markets fell steeply as investors prepared for US interest rates to rise, but markets subsequently rebounded as interest rates stayed low. Equity markets in countries within Asia-Pacific such as India and China led to stronger performance at the end of 2014. One example of such a fund is the Alchemy India Long-Term Fund, managed by Singapore-based Alchemy Investment Management which produced a 60.6 net return for the year 2014 and has a 12-months trailing Sharpe ratio of 2.87 (Fig. 14). The higher returns of Asia-Pacific funds have, for most of the past five years, been accompanied by increased volatility (Fig. 11). However, the volatility of Asia-Pacific-focused hedge funds has decreased significantly since November 2013, and as of January 2015, it has become the category with the least volatility. As a result of smaller fluctuations in performance over 2014, compared to other regions globally, the 12-month volatility for Asia-Pacific-focused hedge funds stands at 2.76% (31 January 2015). As markets within the region continue to mature, and if fund managers are able to successfully produce robust and consistent returns, investors which may remain cautious about investment Fig. 10: Rolling 12-Month Returns of by Regional Focus, January 2010 - January 2015 5 Fig. 9: Performance of Asia-Pacific-Focused vs. All Net Returns 14% 6% 4% 2.17% 2.1 2015 YTD (28 Feb) 5.46% 3.7 2014 11.6 11.91% 7.93% 2-Year Annualized 8.8 8.44% 7.74% 3-Year Annualized 5-Year Annualized Asia-Pacific- Focused All Hedge Funds in Asia-Pacific, due to concerns about risk, may start to look at these funds in greater numbers for their ability to meet portfolio objectives over long time frames. When looking at hedge fund returns on a risk-adjusted basis, we can see that Asia-Pacific-focused funds typically had a lower Sharpe ratio than all hedge funds as a whole until October 2014 (Fig. 12). The combined effect of stronger performance over most timeframes, and a drop in the amount of volatility exhibited by funds in the region, has led to Asia-Pacific-based funds, managed by fund managers located in the region, moving ahead of their all hedge funds counterparts, in terms of Sharpe ratio, since the end of 2014.

Preqin Special Report: Asia-Pacific Local Knowledge Has Led to Strong Performance Fig. 13 shows a comparison between the performance of Asia- Pacific-focused hedge funds based in the region and Asia-Pacificfocused hedge funds that are managed by firms headquartered outside the region. Preqin s data shows that over the past six years, hedge funds based in Asia-Pacific have posted higher returns than their counterparts outside the region. In fact, in 2009, 2012, 2013 and 2014, Asia-Pacific-focused hedge funds based in the region outperformed their peers based overseas by more than two times. In 2011, the only year of negative performance over the past six years, the losses for both these categories were both similar (-7.5 for funds based in Asia-Pacific, and -6.86% for funds based outside the region). When looking at risk-adjusted returns, funds that focus on Asia- Pacific, that are run by managers from beyond its borders, have shown a divergence in terms of rolling three-year Sharpe ratio since the middle of 2013 from fund managers investing in Asia-Pacific that are also based there (Fig. 12). This suggests that Asia-Pacificbased managers are best placed to generate strong returns, on a risk-adjusted basis, amid burgeoning markets caused by regional economic developments. Outlook Interest in Asia-Pacific as a destination for investment has been growing in recent years, with both investors and fund managers within the region and beyond seeing profitable trading opportunities there. A favourable macro environment, increased options for investment, as well as countries such as Japan, China and India implementing expansionary fiscal and monetary policies in order to jump start economic growth, has led to increased opportunities and appetite for fund managers to launch funds focused on the Asia-Pacific region. Preqin s data shows that funds investing in Asia-Pacific have been able to generate returns above the Preqin-All Strategies Hedge Fund benchmark over recent years. Fund managers based in Asia-Pacific s borders have been particularly successful, and the local knowledge of the markets in the region has enabled them to generate both higher returns, and better risk-adjusted returns, than their counterparts investing from beyond the region.

Preqin Special Report: Asia-Pacific Asia-Pacific-Based Investors Outlook on At the end of 2014, Preqin interviewed over 150 institutional investors globally to find out more about their views on how hedge funds have performed in 2014 and their outlook for 2015. In this section, which contrasts the results of this study, published in the 2015 Preqin Global Hedge Fund Report, with our interviews with Asia-Pacific-based investors, Preqin examines in more detail how far hedge funds met expectations in 2014, investor attitudes towards regulation and what these investors look for in fund managers in 2015. Dissatisfaction with Returns Increases, but Confidence Remains Unchanged One in two Asia-Pacific-based investors indicated that their hedge fund investments had met their expectations (Fig. 20). However, a large proportion (43%) of investors based in Asia-Pacific stated that their investments in the asset class had fallen short of their expectations, a higher percentage than among investors globally (34%). With Asia-Pacific-focused funds outperforming their global peers in 2014, and many investors in the region investing locally, this could indicate that Asia-Pacific-based investors are looking for higher absolute returns from their hedge funds than other investors globally. Preqin s performance benchmarks for Asia-Pacificfocused hedge funds show that these funds returned 12.7% and 18.11% in 2012 and 2013 respectively. In contrast, similar funds produced 6.01% in 2014; this relatively poor performance has not gone unnoticed by investors. Asia-Pacific Investors Seek which Can Provide Risk-Adjusted Returns with Aligned Fees Investor sentiment towards hedge funds remains largely unchanged and over the course of 2015, Asia-Pacific-based institutions look set to put more money to work in the asset class. Eighty-two percent of investors in the region indicated to Preqin that they will either maintain or increase their current level of investment in the asset class. Despite this encouraging sign of interest from the region, investors retain a cautious outlook going forwards. The risk profile of a fund was most often cited as the key factor for Asia-Pacific investors when looking for a new fund, with the majority of investors (69%) considering it a significant factor (Fig. 21). Second to risk profile, returns, liquidity and fees were all cited as equally important factors when assessing new opportunities. Despite this, only a relatively small proportion of investors (14%) indicated that their confidence in hedge funds to meet portfolio expectations had decreased following a year of what many investors deemed unsatisfactory performance.
