Emerging markets take center stage as investors seeks high returns
 
Triple digit returns from emerging market funds in 2006 and 2007 have sparked a rush of interest from institutional investors. With the impending downturn in the US and European markets, and a dislocation between developed and emerging economies, allocation to emerging market funds are continuing to rise. New research shows emerging market investing to be rapidly changing from a fractional alternative allocation into a core portfolio investment.

Hedge Funds World Global Opportunities is the single largest gathering of emerging market investors and fund managers. Utilize the conference to market your fund at our unique “meet the funds” event where fund managers have 90 seconds to pitch their funds. Understand first hand how and why institutional investors allocate to particular funds focused on emerging markets. Learn from specific case studies outlining successful emerging and frontier market investments strategies. At Hedge Funds World Global Opportunities hear from and network with funds and investors who have realized these explosive emerging market returns, and take your business to the next level.
