Although nearly half of all sovereign wealth funds (SWFs) are based in the Middle East and North Africa region, only 32 per cent of them invest in Mena-focussed hedge funds, new data has revealed.
Almost all of the SWFs known to be investing in hedge funds pursue a global investment strategy.
North America, as a mature and large hedge-fund market, is also a popular destination for investments in this asset class, with most of the larger SWFs, including the large Mena funds, targeting hedge funds there, a report by Preqin said. This includes Abu Dhabi Investment Authority and Kuwait Investment Authority.
