How this study is made
- Who counts. A hedge fund manager here is an adviser whose private funds are half or more hedge funds by its own Form ADV (Schedule D), with its main office in the Los Angeles metro area, Orange County included (Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA, Census CBSA 31080). An exempt reporting adviser counts only when its filing lists a website.
- How they are ranked. By the private fund gross assets each manager files; regulatory AUM is shown and does not set the rank. Figures are as filed, with the month of the filing.
- One kind per firm. A firm our other lists or rankings already place as another kind of investor is not counted here. Left out: 15 whose kind on our lists or rankings is another kind (6 wealth managers, 3 credit managers, 2 traditional managers, 1 fund of funds or secondaries buyer, 1 multi-strategy manager, 1 other business and 1 real estate manager); 5 whose filed name names another kind of business (such as credit, lending, real estate, infrastructure, wealth or venture); 1 whose filed name says family office (they are on our family office lists); 1 that file 100 or more individual clients with financial planning and that we have not read.
- One business, one row. Advisers of one business (the same website or company page on Form ADV, a name their own site carries in one town, or a pair we read by hand) are one row, carried by the larger filing and its figure, never added, and shown once, in the place of that filing.
- Names. Firm names only, as the firm trades; no person, contact or street address is shown.
