Time-varying exposures and leverage in hedge funds

Patrick McGuire, Eli Remolona and Kostas Tsatsaronis

BIS Quarterly Review, 2005

Abstract: Style analysis shows that as market conditions change so do the investment strategies of hedge funds. It also provides a simple indicator of hedge fund leverage that varies over time. The indicator suggests that leverage tended to be high in 1997-98 but lower more recently.
