Hedge funds watch Greek tragedy from the wings

Lyxor Asset Management says Greek risk has become too hot to handle for hedge funds

Hedge funds watch Greek tragedy from the wings

Greek risk has become too hot to handle even for hedge funds that pride themselves on finding compelling investment opportunities in times of market stress, according to a French asset manager that offers investors access to hedge funds managing $7.7 billion.

Lyxor Asset Management has said that of the 80 hedge funds it offered via its managed account platform, only 11 had exposure to Greece, mostly event-driven or credit strategies.
