Welcome to the Connecticut Hedge Fund Association

The State of Connecticut is one of the worlds' top ranked financial centers.  CT is home to over 400 private funds, managing over $750 billion in assets, and is the third (3rd) largest center for hedge funds globally.  When ranking only the largest hedge funds (AUM $1B) CT is number two (2) in the world.  The CTHFA was founded in 2004 as a 501(c)(6) non-profit professional association to support this important industry.

The CTHFA's mission is to be the preeminent professional society for ALL sell-side and buy- side professionals working in or with CT's "Alternative Investment" (hedge funds, private equity funds, private credit funds, real estate, and digital asset) industry.  Our doors are also open to the service-side firms (prime brokers, law, tax, etc.) that facilitate and support the industry.
