From Hedgeweek: Summer in London brings with it a whole new wave of would be
hedge fund managers, who have either left their employers as part of a
pre-bonus cost-cutting exercise, or are planning to do so once they have been
paid the sums they will then use as the required investments to start up their
new ventures.
Those currently involved in drawing up business plans, as
well as incumbents taking a look at where they are within the industry in order
to monitor levels of profitability, all have an interest in reviewing the
competitive landscape. While the former need to know what they are up against
before making the “big jump”, the latter also have to keep an eye on how the
forces that shape the industry1 are evolving, to be able to forecast revenue
and make the necessary adjustments to their business strategies, be it their
product offerings, approaches to marketing, or the structuring of their
operations.
….As it turns out, defining the market with a view to
analysing competition provides those from the European side of the pond eager
to make their mark in the hedge fund industry with a striking starting point:
this is a global industry in which the top performers worldwide are managed
from the US .
