According to a poll of over 100 top global hedge funds (and fund of funds) managers,
collectively managing some $900 billion in assets, shows that three quarters of respondents identified technology as the biggest spending area in the next two year, for 58% of funds, expenditure on risk management systems was anticipated to be the biggest proportion of that spend.

The survey also shows that the majority of funds (80%) expect incentive fees and management fees to decrease in the next two years. Almost two-thirds also identified increased operational costs as a significant future pressure on fees over the same period.

The survey was carried out by Ernst & Young in partnership with Ipsos MORI, an independent research company, across a number of leading global hedge funds, and fund of funds managers.
