| Tiivistelmä: | This paper examines a 2-country general equilibrium model with partially segmented financial markets, where hedge funds (henceforth as: h-fund/s) emerge endogenously. It is empirically shown that the h-fund investment strategy predicted by the model, called herein the "risk-adjusted carry trade" strategy, explains more than 16 percent of the overall h-fund index returns and more than 33 percent of the fixed income arbitrage sub-index returns. The flow of new money to h-funds affects exchange rates, market interest rates, and both the h- funds' contemporaneous and expected future returns as predicted by the model. |
