Hedge Fund Monitor
Size
Size measures capture the magnitude of hedge fund investments at a point in time (stock measures) and scale of transactions over time (flow measures). Hedge funds that are large may adversely affect financial markets and counterparties during periods of stress. Examples of size metrics include gross assets, net assets, and gross notional exposures.
Short notional exposure by asset class (U.S. dollars)
Skip the ChartThe data are aggregated responses to SEC Form PF. Blank or null values are intentional to avoid potential disclosure of proprietary information of individual filers. Only responses from Qualifying Hedge Funds are included. See additional definitions and methodology on the SEC Form PF Data Sets page of the Hedge Fund Monitor.
Short notional exposure is based on SEC Form PF questions 26 and 30. It reflects exposures that stand to increase (or decrease) in value with a decrease (or increase) in the value of the underlying assets. We group reported exposures from questions 26 and 30 into seven asset classes.
