Hedge funds have recently experienced considerable growth as an alternative asset class. Years of disappointing returns from mainstream markets have stimulated the interest of a previously sceptical investment community. An increasing number of asset managers are now providing clients with access to hedge funds.
This book, How to Invest in Hedge Funds, is a step-by-step guide for professionals investing in this area for the first time. It is a practical introduction to various types of hedge fund strategy, and how they work and develop over time. It provides a uniquely balanced picture, outlining both the strengths and weaknesses of this type of fund.
Contents include: -
- definition, origin, structure and attributes of a typical hedge fund;
- risks and merits of hedge funds;
- how to select a hedge fund;
- portfolio construction and management;
- how to organize a hedge fund research effort;
- chapters dedicated to explaining specific hedge fund strategies.
