About the Book
By Shartsis Friese LLP
Investments in hedge funds, which now total close to trillion, have grown dramatically over the last five years as private and institutional investors have sought out new and profitable alternative investment options.
This increased investor interest in hedge funds has led to greater scrutiny and regulation of hedge fund managers by state and federal regulatory agencies, including the Securities and Exchange Commission. A new book, U.S. Regulation of Hedge Funds, written by lawyers at SHARTSIS FRIESE LLP, one of the leading law firms serving the investment management community, provides a comprehensive, but accessible guide to the new and evolving rules affecting hedge funds.
U.S. Regulation of Hedge Funds presents a top-to-bottom review of hedge fund regulation. This resource brings together in a single, convenient volume discussion of the wide array of securities, tax, ERISA and commodities laws that apply to hedge funds and their investment advisers. Also, provided is a practical, up-to-date perspective on hedge fund structures, fee arrangements, marketing practices and disclosure, and a comprehensive, readable review of this fast-growing financial business and the rapidly changing regulatory environment that burdens it.
This resource surveys federal securities laws and rules applicable to the organization, capitalization and operations of private U.S. domestic investment partnerships that invest and trade mainly in the public securities markets. An invaluable resource with a detail index is for anyone who manages a hedge fund or counsels hedge funds managers.
What Others Have Said
A must read for any COO, General Counsel or CCO of a hedge fund firm. This is the most comprehensive and best book to explain the labyrinth of laws and regulations with which a hedge fund must comply. Finally there is a book where I can find everything in one place that is readable. Shartsis Friese again demonstrates that they are the go to law firm for hedge funds.
