The Newedge Research group produces exclusive AlternativeEdge research reports under the direction of the Newedge Alternative Investments Group. The reports are in-depth reviews of derivative-related topics that have been thoroughly researched and back-tested. Newedge also has developed several CTA indicies in response to investor inquiries, client suggestions and the Research group’s ongoing pursuits. The Newedge CTA Index calculates the daily rate of return for a pool of 20 CTAs selected from the larger managers that are open to new investment. The Newedge CTA Index allows market participants and institutional investors to measure aggregate CTA performance on a day-to-day basis;to compare the performance of a selected CTA against a collective market of CTAs; and, assess the performance of managed futures funds against a CTA index with accuracy similar to that offered via indexes of other asset classes). The AlternativeEdge Short Term Traders Index includes both established and emerging managers and was developed based on insight from an AlternativeEdge research note. |
