A new study states that hedge fund managers will continue to earn about 1.8 times more than mutual fund managers, according to an Investment News report.

Kevin Kozlowski from Greenwich Associates said: “It's a no-brainer that the hedge funds are out there trying to attract talent. By contrast, on the traditional side, there are a lot more rules and regulations that can restrict compensation.”

Mutual fund managers are expected to receive about $700,000 this year while hedge fund managers are expected to earn an average of $1.3 million.

Fixed-income managers, according to Kozlowski, might continue to lag from their equity counterparts but may be compensated more in terms of incentives.
