Reframing Capital Pathways Positioning hedge funds to capture evolving investor demand and global capital shifts
Now in its fourth edition, Hedge Funds Today brings together leaders from the global hedge fund community to examine evolving strategies, macro pressures, and the next wave of opportunity. As managers navigate volatility, shifting rate cycles, and rising expectations from institutional investors, the forum offers practical insight and peer-driven dialogue. With regional allocators widening their participation, regulatory advances gaining pace, and the Middle East strengthening its position as a global hub for alternative investment, the event reflects the region’s growing influence on capital flows and industry development. The programme also touches on the gradual adoption of digital asset market infrastructure as part of broader innovation shaping modern hedge fund operations. Sessions will cover licensing and compliance progression, access to private capital, and the creation of resilient, scalable platforms suited to a changing investment landscape.
