Special properties

Hedge fund managers who managed about 720 billion U.S. dollars in assets in total, and had been using alternative data for at least five years

Supplementary notes

Alternative data is used by investors to evaluate a company or investment that is not within their traditional data sources. For example, app usage or credit/debit card transactions fall under alternative data sources.

The source splits hedge fund manages into "market leaders" - defined as those managers that have been using alternative data for more than five years - and the "rest of the market", which includes managers that have been using alternative data for less than half a decade.
