Overview
As Hedge funds seek to generate alpha in industry, they’re shaping to be more and more complex. This improved complexity is leading to a lot more data being generated and analysed. As a result, to capture success hedge funds need technology capable of more complex data analytics
Industry leaders believe that fund managers who don’t invest in the technology could get left behind and even with the growing complexities there may seem to be a continued growth in demand for outsourcing as the need for data and digitized processes increases.
Along with the latest trends and developments, the summit will attract innovation and technology partners who provide insights into further business transformation for increased hedge fund performances.
