Some Images from #cryptofunds22 in Dubai & Abu Dhabi where we were talking to asset managers, family officers & regulators who want to access to #crypto investments.
Despite the enviable recent performance of many crypto funds, nearly 80% of hedge funds are not currently investing in digital assets.
Of the 21% that are investing in digital assets, that investment only equates to 3% of AUM, although 85% of those hedge funds intend to deploy more capital into the asset class by the end of 2021.
According to recent research, 64% of those wealth managers not currently investing said that they didn’t have enough knowledge of digital assets and 82% cited regulatory uncertainty is by far the greatest barrier to investing.
CryptoFunds22 help to fill this knowledge gap for fund managers, wealth managers, family offices and HNWI investors in the financial community.
