The latter part of 2018 was particularly depressing for hedgies. According to Eurekahedge, the data company, in December hedge funds registered a performance-based decrease of $11.3bn, and net asset outflows of $12.2bn, leaving total assets under management of $2.34tn.
Infrastructure funds, on the other hand, cannot shovel in the money fast enough. According to IJGlobal’s estimate, infrastructure funds raised a record$102.3bn last year, beating the previous high of $88.2bn in 2015.
