The new index, which consists of a basket of stocks listed on a US regulated exchange and invested by hedge funds, offers exposure to the performance of a basket of stocks representative of the U.S. listed equity holdings made by hedge funds.
Also, the Solactive Hedge Fund Holdings US Index will provide an innovative approach to capture the potential alpha generated by hedge funds in a systematic way.
Henning Kahre, head of equity indexing at Solactive, said: "We are pleased to have been given the opportunity to capitalize on our expertise and database of public filings from some of the most well-known investors. We continue to see a significant demand for hedge fund indices globally and, most recently, particularly from Europe."
