Paul Zummo, Chief Investment Officer of J.P. Morgan Alternative Asset Management, joins Kumar Panja, EMEA head of the Capital Advisory Group at J.P. Morgan, as they celebrate 30 years of investing in hedge funds and other alternative asset classes. Zummo contrasts the early days, characterized by limited data and conventional strategies, with today’s landscape, which features emerging managers along with quantitative and multi-strategy funds. With $33 billion in assets under management following the merger with the Private Bank, Zummo emphasizes the importance of robust risk management, disciplined due diligence, thorough referencing and careful cultural assessments in selecting hedge fund managers.
