We’ve conducted research using a combination of quantitative and qualitative analysis, expert opinions and market insights to help you:
- Understand the economic similarities and differences between the 2008 global financial crisis and the current recession

- Adapt your investment strategies to take advantage of opportunities in a post-Covid world
How will Covid-19 affect hedge funds, those that manage them and the industry as a whole?
Here are some key points to guide you:
- A greater need for flexibility – to keep the wheels turning during a pandemic, flexibility is paramount. Companies that facilitate and embrace this are likely to be strong performers.
- Increased use of technology for daily operations – businesses have adapted, streamlined and cut costs to survive the ongoing crisis. We’ll see a move towards an increasingly virtual working environment.
- Transparency and decreased risk – in a post-Covid world, businesses will need to be more accountable and consumer-focused. Those who achieve this will be a strong stock market performer.
- More focus on personal well-being – Covid-19 has forced people to take more interest in their own health. Now, more than ever, there’s greater interest in health products and companies.
- Local businesses vs corporations – the ongoing crisis has created a social media movement in support of small and local businesses. This could force a scaling back on retail stocks in favour of alternative assets.
