Download or read book Hedge Fund Disclosure Documents Line by Line written by Gregory J. Nowak and published by Aspatore Books. This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Managers and sponsors of hedge funds and funds of funds commission the creation of disclosure documents to explain their products and minimize their personal risk exposure. These disclosure documents can be descriptive, but often end up being dense and opaque. Industry convention and the anti-fraud provisions of the securities laws govern how these documents are prepared. The more opaque the disclosure document is, the less likely the disclosure document will adequately describe the plan, the purposes, and the risks of investment, and accomplish the legal objective of true, complete, and accurate disclosure. Recent market retrenchment, beginning with the credit crisis in 2008, tested hedge fund disclosures like no time in the recent past.This second edition of Hedge Fund Disclosure Documents Line by Line capitalizes on this recent economic trauma by rewriting and expanding the fund disclosure to address modern hedge fund risks, while at the same time providing the user with a useful guide to the intricacies of the issues presented by the contemporary investment environment.

Download or read book Mandatory Disclosure and Operational Risk written by Stephen J. Brown and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mandatory disclosure is a regulatory tool intended to allow market participants to assess operational risk. We examine the value of disclosure through the controversial SECrequirement, since overturned, which required major hedge funds to register as investment advisors and file Form ADV disclosures. Leverage and ownership structures suggest that lenders and equity investors were already aware of operational risk. However, operational risk does not mediate flow-performance relationships. Investorseither lack this information or regard it as immaterial. These findings suggest thatregulators should account for the endogenous production of information and the marginalbenefit of disclosure to different investment clienteles.
Download or read book Hedge Fund Voluntary Disclosure written by Gavin Cassar and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using a dataset of 3,234 letters sent by 434 hedge funds to their investors during 1995-2011, we study what motivates hedge fund managers to make voluntary disclosures. Contrary to the hedge fund industry's reputation for opacity, we observe that managers provide their investors with an array of quantitative and qualitative information about fund returns, risk exposures, holdings, benchmarks, performance attribution, and future prospects. We find that the tensions between the agency costs faced by investors and the proprietary costs faced by managers affect fund disclosures. Consistent with managers reducing proprietary costs, better performing funds disclose less quantitative data about performance and holdings, and consistent with the presence of agency costs, riskier funds disclose less quantitative information about performance and assets under management.
