鈥淢arch data showed a modest gain in the SS&C GlobeOp Capital Movement Index with both inflows and outflows somewhat muted, but broadly in line with seasonal expectations,鈥� said Bill Stone, chairman and CEO of SS&C Technologies.
鈥淭he overall steadiness of the increase in hedge fund investments is noteworthy in light of recent higher volatility in financial markets. Clearly, there is considerable uncertainty around a number of issues.鈥�
Stone cited the direction of central bank policies, the EU response to Greece, the impact of sharply lower oil prices, and heightened international tensions as causes of market volatility.
Despite this, Stone claimed that the data indicates that investors are showing 鈥渃ontinued confidence鈥� in alternative markets.
