Research and Markets: High Net Worth Alternative Investments Report: Identify Demand for Hedge Funds, Capital Protected Funds, Private Equity Funds and Real Estate Funds

DUBLIN--(Business Wire)--
Research and Markets
(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/bca519/high_net_worth_alt) has
announced the addition of the "High Net Worth Alternative Investments" report to
their offering.

The recession has highlighted the advantages of capital protected funds, and the
risks of hedge funds. HNW investors are changing their views of these products
as a result, and their private banks need to know what this means for their
product offerings. This report identifies demand for hedge funds, capital
protected funds, private equity funds and real estate funds from high net
worths.

Scope

* Covers France, Germany, Italy, Spain, UK, Nordic region, Belgium/Netherlands,
Switzerland, Australia, China, India, Hong Kong, Singapore and Taiwan
* Includes hedge funds, capital protected funds, private equity funds and real
estate funds (open ended and closed ended)
* Includes results of the Wealth Management Market Leaders survey of 280 wealth
management companies worldwide
* Focuses on high net worths (those with more than $1m in onshore liquid
assets)

Highlights of this title

HNW alternative investment asset allocations are expected to decline slightly in
both Australia and France in the next two years, as high net worths reposition
their portfolios. Real estate allocations and commodities allocations will
decline among Australian HNWs while both hedge fund and derivative allocations
will increase.

While British HNWs plan to increase their exposure to capital protected products
and private equity funds, and their wealth managers will devote significant
resources to the development of these product areas, they are failing to
anticipate their clients demand for closed-ended real estate funds.

At the same time German wealth managers are focusing strongly on capital
protected products which, while certainly in demand by most HNWs, will not see a
significant increase in terms of portfolio allocations.

Key reasons to purchase this title

* Learn about HNW investor current and future alternative investment asset
allocations;
* Assess HNW investor needs, and wealth managers resource focus, on a country by
country basis;
* Identify where the competition is missing opportunities to capitalize on HNW
investors alternative investment demands
