Hedge funds are one of the fastest growing investment products, yet there is little information available to guide investors through this highly attractive financial instrument. In Hedge Funds: A Resource for Investors, the authors provide an accessible guide to assist investors in their portfolio management decisions, covering the operators, products and various hedge fund strategies available. Written by two highly experienced players of the hedge fund industry, the authors describe the current trends and key recent events in this shift to alternative investments, which are characterised by an excellent risk return profile and low correlation with traditional investments. Hedge Funds: A Resource for Investors is a must-have guide for fund managers, portfolio managers and private investors.
