Top Hedge Fund Countries

Below is a list of countries with the most hedge funds listed in the Top 100 Largest Hedge Funds:

# 1. USA - 76%
#2. United Kingdon - 19%
#3. France - 1%
#4. Japan - 1 %
#5. Sweden - 1%
#6. Brazil - 1 %



As you can see, more than three quarters of the world's largest hedge funds are located in the US, with fully 56% of the US' largest funds based out of New York. New York has more funds in the hedge fund 100 than all other countries combined. However, these numbers do not fairly depict the number of hedge funds in each country for all funds. Large funds are disproportionately located in mega financial centers like New York and London.
