Tighten due diligence procedures for more successful hedge fund
investment
Practical Operational Due Diligence on Hedge Funds is an
encyclopaedic, comprehensive reference, written from the
perspective of an experienced practitioner. Accompanied by a useful
archive of factual material on different hedge fund issues,
including failures, fines, and closures, this book focuses on the
areas due diligence professionals should address, and explains why
they're important. Extensive discussion of publicised cases
identifies the manager entities and actual fund vehicles involved,
and provides commentary on what could have been done differently in
each case, backed by actual regulatory materials, such as SEC
complaints, that recreate the events that took place. Readers gain
a deeper understanding of the many facets of due diligence and the
many possible pitfalls, learning how standardise processes and
avoid major errors and oversights.
The amount of money managed by hedge funds has almost doubled
from the $1 trillion under management at the time of the financial
crisis. Hedge funds can be extremely risky, but can be extremely
profitable -- as money increasingly flows back in, due
diligence on these alternative investments becomes more and more
critical. This book provides complete guidance toward the due
diligence process, with plentiful real-world examples.
* Identify the areas of due diligence and what can go wrong
* Create procedures and checklists to minimise errors
* Learn what publicised cases could have done differently
* Gain a deeper understanding of massive failures and
successes
Proper due diligence can be a massive undertaking, but
thoroughness is essential when the price of failure is so high.
Practical Operational Due Diligence on Hedge Funds provides
the details professionals need to be on point every time.
