A measure of aggregate hedge fund illiquidity, from the paper: Kruttli, M.S., A.J. Patton and T. Ramadorai, 2015, "The Impact of Hedge Funds on Asset Markets," Review of Asset Pricing Studies, 5(2), 185-226. 2 June 2016 We compute a measure of hedge fund portfolio illiquidity using the following procedure: In each month, for all funds for which there are 12 prior months of return data available, we estimate the …first-order autocorrelation of returns. The aggregate illiquidity measure for that month is then the cross-sectional average of these autocorrelations across all funds in each month. See the published article for further details.
