METHODOLOGY
• Least independent research brokerage
Hedge Fund section – asked hedge funds their views on various categories relating to
hedge fund services and prime broking. Please refer to the results of the Prime Broking &
Hedge Fund Services Poll published in the October issue of Asiamoney.
Country sections
• Most improved brokerage, across both research & sales, over the last 12 months
• Best local brokerage
Equity Sales
• Best overall sales service
• Best sales people
• Best brokerage for sales trading
• Best execution
Corporate Access
• Best for events and/or conferences
• Best for roadshows and company visits
Equity Research
• Best overall country research
• Best country analysts
• Best research coverage for strategy, macroeconomics, small caps and each of the 5
highest-weighted industries* in that market
* Industries selected according to the relevant MSCI indices as of 31 May 2011.
• Most independent research brokerage
Calculation of Results
Points for Place
For all categories, a first place vote was awarded three points; second place two points and
third place one point.
“One Firm – One Vote”
To avoid any one institution having more influence than others of equal size, multiple
responses were fractioned according to the total number received from that one institution.
Asset Size Weightings
Each response was then weighted according to the institution’s approximate asset size
(total unleveraged Asian equity funds under management) in Asia-Pacific (ex-Australia &
Japan), in Australia or in Japan (depending upon the institution’s allocation of funds). The
table below details weightings according to asset size (hedge fund firms have been weight-
ed at six times their assets to reflect their higher turnover rate):
Asset size (US$million) No. of institutions Multiplied by
<50 366 0.5

201-500 309 4

Rankings for Overall Combined Regional Research & Sales, Overall Regional Research &
Overall Regional Sales
For the Asia (ex-Australia & Japan) rankings a country weighting system was used to com-
pare brokerages as a whole in the region. The rationale is that the importance of markets
varies across the region, so the points a brokerage receives in major markets should be
weighted more than the points it receives in smaller markets. The MSCI AC Asia ex-Japan
(as of 31 May 2011) was used to achieve this. A similar sector weighting system was used
to address the importance of the sectors within the region. Please refer to the following
tables for a mathematical breakdown:
Asiamoney’s 22nd annual Brokers Poll invited chief investment officers, senior fund
managers and senior investment analysts at fund management houses, hedge fund &
private equity firms, insurance companies and wealth management houses in Asia-
Pacific, Europe and North America. A total of 4,431 valid individual responses from
approximately 2,300 different institutions, including 481 hedge funds, were received.
During the auditing process Asiamoney further verified responses by speaking directly
to respondents; 323 individual responses were made void either because they failed to
fulfill the auditing requirements. The geographical breakdown of the final 2,369 institu-
tions is as follows:
The questionnaire incorporates 16 different sections as follows:
Regional China Indonesia Malaysia Singapore
Hedge Fund Hong Kong Japan Pakistan Taiwan
Australia India Korea The Philippines Thailand
Vietnam
The questionnaire includes the following sections and categories:
Regional (Asia ex-Australia & Japan) section
• Most improved brokerage, across both research & sales, over the last 12 months.
Regional Equity Sales
• Best regional brokerages for sales services
• Best regional sales people
• Best regional sales traders
• Best regional brokerages for execution

The 12 industries covered are those given the highest weighting in the MSCI Asia ex-Japan
index as of 31 May 2011 – please refer to the GICS map for industry definitions.
