THANKS TO OuR pARTNeRS

ABOuT THeSe eveNTS

This event is truly a collaboration of efforts. First, by the High Commission in the united Kingdom and its dedicated staff who worked diligently to coordinate logistics, invite prominent local investors and allocators and provide an appropriate and very Canadian backdrop to the proceedings. Many thanks to them, indeed.

Thanks also to the event sponsors: Mitsubushi uFJ Fund Services, RBC Capital Markets and KpMG LLp for their generous support both monetarily and of their time, participation and active endorsement and promotion of the event.

Our speakers and to all the Canadian funds who attended and provided perspectives on the Canadian hedge fund industry, our thanks, for without them there would not be a Canadian hedge story to tell, and none to tell it.

Of course, thanks to the many attendees who came to hear about an industry well-known to them in a place perhaps new or less-known. We appreciate your indulgence as we tell our story and look forward to continued dialogue as both our industry and your requirements grow and evolve.

The Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development (DFATD) regularly hosts events promoting Canadian products and services, know-how and ingenuity and industry participants that provide value for their customers, clients and/or investors.

Since 2012, DFATD has produced various events promoting the Canadian hedge fund industry and its participants. evening receptions like this one have been held in London (2012 and 2014), Boston (2012), Zürich (2013), Minneapolis (2013), Washington DC (2014), Geneva (2014) and Dubai (2014) with more planned in 2015 and beyond. It is hoped that all participants will both learn something about others in the industry, be they managers, service providers or investors, and meet new contacts that will assist them going forward.

Attendees are invited to share their feedback with the relevant High Commission, embassy or Consulate or the coordinator of these events (located in Ottawa): Donna DeBaeremaeker, [email protected].

MeSSAGe FROM THe HIGH COMMISSIONeR

Canada is known for its many natural wonders and bountiful resources such as forests, minerals (including diamonds) and foodstuffs and I am happy to add its growing hedge fund industry to this list of Canada-made proficiencies.

Getting to know the Canadian hedge fund industry and its diverse range of investment strategies such as event-driven, managed futures, long-short and a host of others speaks to the variation in so many areas that Canada delivers to the world’s consumers and investors.

In highlighting a few of the fund managers at this event, we hope that local investors will come to know what many others have found: that Canada offers an array of strategies managed by regulated investment managers.

The team at the High Commission in London looks forward to continuing to work with AIMA Canada and its members to increase the profile of Canada’s alternative investment industry in the united Kingdom.

THe GROWTH OF CANADA’S HeDGe FuND INDuSTRY

Since the establishment of the Canada National Group of AIMA in 2003 the industry has grown from strength to strength as managers, markets and the regulatory environment has reacted to, and had effect on, the overall asset management industry. Like so many places, what started as a cottage industry of ‘insiders’ managing personal or family capital or smaller pools of investment has lead to an industry diversified as to size, strategy and investor base.

AIMA Canada has grown with the industry, providing a multitude of services not only to an expanding number and variety of members such as hedge funds, other asset managers, prime brokers, law and accounting firms, exchanges and institutional investors but to all roles within these members: portfolio managers, operations and compliance personnel, salespeople and a great many other specializations. Supporting sound practices, industry advocacy, investor and broader education, university outreach and social events designed to bring industry participants together, AIMA Canada is very active on multiple fronts with several stakeholders.

One important area is simply conveying the Canadian hedge fund industry story properly as some continue to see hedge funds (also called

alternative funds) as ‘risky’ and not delivering good or even positive returns which is simply not the case. To be clear, the Canadian hedge fund industry has continued to diversify the range of strategies offered. The industry today is very different from the one that existed prior to 2008. Although 7-10 years ago, long biased resource managers dominated the Canadian hedge fund area, there isn’t a single one that can now be counted among the largest hedge funds in Canada.

KCS Fund Strategies Inc., headed by peter Klein who is also a professor at Simon Fraser university in British Columbia, gathers return statistics on approximately 200 Canadian hedge funds and publishes a number of indices showing the performance of the industry overall, certain strategies and sub-sets. One sub-set is ex-directional, which excludes funds with large market or beta exposure (the parsing of funds into strategies is done but KCS, not self-selected by the funds); this would include arbitrage and market neutral funds, for example.

The performance speaks for itself. Looking on an annual basis, both aggregate and ex-directional hedge fund indices have delivered positive performance each year the S&p TSx

The Canadian hedge fund industry began in the late 80s/early 90s and has come a long way and proven to be an excellent alternative to, and complement of, long-only investments. New managers trading diverse strategies continue to seed, grow and deliver superior nominal and risk-adjusted returns to their investors.

Index Maximum Drawdown

Length of Drawdown

Months to Recover

S&P/TSX TR -43.3% (02/09) 9 months 23 months KCS Canadian Hedge Fund Index -20.9% (12/08) 5 months 11 months

KCS Canadian Index Ex-Directional -13.1% (11/08) 5 months 10 months

Hedge had less of a drawdown and recovered more quickly.

2014 CeLeBRATING A DeCADe OF STeLLAR GROWTH IN CANADA’S ALTeRNATIve INveSTMeNT INDuSTRY | 5

TR (total return, which includes dividends reinvested) did the same. In negative years the hedge indices fell by less than 50% of that of the long-only index. All this after all fees and charges are accounted for – costs that are not accounted for with the long-only index.

Since 2003, hedge funds have delivered performance that the long-only index simply cannot match. The ex-directional index keeping pace with the markets until 2008, when its drawdown was a fraction that of the long-only index. The overall Canadian index has mirrored the S&p TSx TR except that its up-years were generally higher and its down-years were always less pronounced.

volatility and drawdowns are a concern of any investor. Investors which require a steady rate of return due to commitments to beneficiaries or other constraints are risk-averse while most investors are not excited to have losses over

multiple months or years. In these respects, Canadian hedge funds do well as the worst drawdowns over the past 10 years were much less than that of the S&p TSx TR index, occurred over a shorter period and took less than one-half the time to recover.

volatility tells an equally compelling story. Canadian hedge displayed significantly lower risk and the Sharpe ratio (used to illustrate risk-adjusted returns) is very high over the 10-year study period.

Surveying the $35 billion Canadian hedge fund and FoHF industry one can see that its continued growth, maturation and regulation coupled with an increasing array of strategies, both directional and low-beta, delivering superior returns, downside risk protection and lower volatility is a formula for continued success: both for investors and industry participants.

Annual returns of indices (2003-2013)

Hedge fund indices delivered positive performance each year the S&P TSX TR did.

Growth of $100 (2003-2013)

Hedge fund indices kept pace with the long-only index and experienced a fraction of the drawdown.
