The 20 biggest hedge funds have increased their share of the industry's assets over the last five years thanks to their quant capabilities, according to a report from Barclays.

The top 20 biggest hedge fund managers have a higher proportion of the industry's assets than they did five years ago, according to a new report from Barclays.

The biggest funds — run by people named Dalio, Asness and Griffin — accounted for 26% of the industry's assets at the end of 2018, compared to 21% of the industry's assets at the end of 2013.. Quant funds offered by these managers have grown from 6% of the industry's assets to 11%, while discretionary strategies — in which investing decisions are by a person or a team of people instead of a machine — have dropped from 9% of the industry's assets to 6%.
