(Automated Trader) Hedge funds recorded positive net asset inflows totalling $5.0bn in Q2 2017, bringing total H1 2017 asset flows to $24.7bn. This marks a distinct contrast with 2016, which saw net industry outflows of $110bn across the year, although Q2 inflows do not approach the $19.7bn seen in Q1. With performance remaining robust in the second quarter, hedge fund industry assets under management grew to a record $3.38tn, a 4.1% increase from the beginning of 2017. However, capital flows were not even across the industry: while CTAs saw the greatest net inflows of $10.4bn in Q2, equity strategies funds recorded their sixth consecutive quarter of outflows, totalling $12.4bn.
