Hedge funds are back in focus as elevated stock-bond correlations challenge traditional portfolio construction. In this episode, Kumar Panja, EMEA head of Capital Advisory Group at J.P. Morgan, sits down with Joe Dowling, global head of Blackstone’s Multi-Asset Investing business (BXMA), and Riad Abrahams, head of Strategy, Risk and Quant Analytics in BXMA. Together, they discuss how Blackstone evaluates and partners with hedge fund managers, how they think about diversification versus “di-worsification” and why drawdown correlation matters as much as headline performance. They also explore the rise of managed accounts and seeding, the role of leverage and crowded positioning and how data and AI could reshape the next era of hedge fund edge.
