Let me get it straight, till now not more than 20 hedge funds are in China and short selling is not allowed. We don't know how things will go and how the hedge fund strategies in US fit there.

Hang in there!
 
rosebudxiaojie:
How will hedge fund fit in China? Anyone has good opinions on that?

Do you mean a china only fund? I don't think it'll be much of an issue. The last fund I was at had 30% of AUM in China and was absolutely killing it (multi-baggers galore).

 

I know that a decent amount of US hedge funds are picking up on the fact that they can pay brilliant Tsinghua/Beida kids next to nothing in Beijing. Pine River, Magnetar for example. Also check out Lei Zhang's Hillhouse Capital - it's something like $6-7Bn now.

Thanks Reality. Tried to initiate a conversation with HC but apparently my cv is not good enough to make them interested...

will try out Pine River and Magnetar after work....

 

yeah spark. this is mission impossible. there are literally no Hfs in mainland..... I checked with all my sell-side friends to dig them all out but still less than 10 names in Beijing. another reason is personal tax rate is ridicuolusly high in Mainland...

cuz I am going to do my phd in Beijing... I need to keep myself in the market . Meanwhile, making some money to finance my phd....

 

To share with other monkeys, HFs with BJ office:

Och Ziff, Keywise, Ding Tian, Hillhouse, Sansar Capital, Hunter Global, Cube Capital

Most funds in Asia are equity L/S... well mostly very long biased and fundamental..

I used to do Asia-Pacific PE (kind of like FoF). Now I do something else but happy to try and answer questions on that stuff.
 

Jesus, how many threads are you going to make? This is the third one I've seen from you on this topic.

Most macro funds trade chinese/hk stocks, rates, and currency already. It is really not neccesary to be in China to get exposure, although obviously they have an "on-shore" market and an "off-shore" market for foreigners. However, you cant just open an office in china and trade the onshore market and it isnt yet clear whether the new products will allow foreign investors to get access to the domestic markets.
