View the latest edition of the HFBOA Newsletter: Regulatory Update!  Where's the SEC Focus?  What's Coming Down the Pike?

HFBOA interviewed Barry Schwartz, Partner at ACA Compliance Group, and Robert Van Gvoer and Steven Nadel, both Partners at Seward & Kissel LLP, to determine the most important regulatory issues funds are now facing, and to determine the implications of proposed regulations that may affect funds in the near future.  There are a number of "hot button" ares of SEC focus that fund managers must be aware of, and several key issues involved in the implementation of the Dodd-Frank Act that will greatly affect fund managers.

by HFBOA 14. June 2010 18:51

We’ve heard talk amongst industry commentators that hedge funds are regaining negotiating power with investors, the result of improved performance more generally and an increase in investor interest as sophisticated investors begin to re-engage with the marketplace.
