GHF Group Report on the Global Hedge Fund Industry 2009

George Town, Cayman Islands, September 25, 2009 --(PR.com)-- However, the drying up of liquidity, the collapse of some large financial institutions, a rise in risk aversion, shaky equity markets and the resultant spate of redemptions saw assets shrinking by nearly a third, hitting a low of US$1.1 trillion as this spring.

Currently, worldwide hedge fund assets stand at US$1.4 trillion, with the fund population just under 8.000. Despite the recent reduction in size, this marks a three-fold increase in fund population and a four-fold increase in assets since the start of 2000.
