For its part, Man Group, in the most-recent quarter, reversed two quarters of outflows and drove assets under management to a record $178 billion. In her first CNBC interview, marking her one year as CEO, Grew said that the need for hedge funds is even greater as interest rates remain high, despite recent cuts, because passive investing is "not as reliable as it was before."

London CNN —The head of one of the world’s biggest hedge funds says artificial intelligence systems are unlikely to replace traders anytime soon. London-based Man Group, whose assets under management hit an all-time high of $178.2 billion during the first six months of the year, makes its money by charging investors management and performance fees. “I don’t think of AI as making investment decisions anytime soon,” Grew said. In the interview with CNN, Grew said the era of rock-bottom interest rates that broadly defined the decade following the 2008 financial crisis had made way for a period of “volatility and dispersion” ushered in by the rise in inflation after the pandemic. In other words, traders navigating a volatile market can expect to make a greater range of — and possibly bigger — returns across various assets than during more stable times.

LONDON, Aug 1 (Reuters) - British hedge fund manager Man Group (EMG.L) posted forecast-beating first-half pretax profit and record assets under management on Tuesday, but a disappointing performance across several of its funds roiled investors, sending shares lower. Man reported negative investment performance at its AHL Evolution Fund and Numeric Global Core Relative Return fund for the first half of 2023, as well as its actively managed GLG Global Emerging Markets Debt Total Return Fund. Performance fees in both Man's AHL Evolution and funds marked "other alternatives" both fell by over 80% from a year earlier. Despite the first quarter volatility, Man reported net inflows of $2.6 billion for the period, coming in around 2.5% higher than industry peers. Man recommended an interim dividend of 5.6 cents a share, in line with guidance offered a year ago.

A man pauses outside of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on January 15, 2016 in New York City. Index-rebalance strategies, the talk of the town just a few short years ago, are seemingly on their last legs these days. What doomed the index-rebalance strategy is a tale as old as time on Wall Street. Times are tough now, but as Alex notes in his story, not everyone is completely giving up on the strategy. And while we're talking Man Group, here's a rundown on a program meant to help non-tech workers learn data-science skills to help streamline their jobs.
