All of the top viewed institutional investment strategies viewed by investors and consultants last month were equity strategies, according to eVestment’s December 2018 Advantage Viewership Report.

On top of this, all but one of the products that saw the most significant increase in views during the month were equity strategies as well.

eVestment explained that the strong showing for equity strategies “was likely driven by December’s volatile global equities markets and reflects how eVestment viewership data can uncover unique insights into the investment strategies, geographies and asset classes investors”.

Europe ex-UK investors and consultants had a stronger interest in hedge funds in December than eVestment users in other regions the company tracks.

Three hedge funds, in particular, made the list of the most viewed strategies overall and the strategies with the most increase in views month-over-month by users in that region.

The viewership data is generated through the eVestment Advantage solution and is based on tracking daily eVestment user reviews of investment universes and products.

The report looks at global, US, UK, Japan, Asia ex-Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Africa, the Middle East and Canada profile viewership activity among the institutional investors and consultants who use eVestment.
