Citco Monthly Hedge Fund Update - July 2026

Hedge fund performance fell in July, driven down by weakness in equity and fixed-income arbitrage strategies, but inflows remained above $10bn for the second month running.

Across funds administered by the Citco group of companies (Citco), the weighted average return came in at -0.8%, marking a decline after three consecutive months of gains through Q2. Equity strategies were the weakest performers, but most strategy types were positive.

The month also saw net inflows of $12bn, with multi-strategy funds taking the lion’s share.
