The hedge fund industry has been reeling in the wake of recent
Ponzi schemes and insider trading scandals as well as the loss of
billions of dollars in assets under management due to fund
closures. Getting Started in Hedge Funds, Third Edition
focuses on the current state of the industry; how hedge funds did
or did not survive the subprime and subsequent credit crisis; and,
what the future holds for investors. Getting Started in Hedge
Funds, Third Edition also provides readers with a brief
overview of the industry's history, and describes the
inner-workings of these complex investment vehicles, including how
to start a hedge fund, and what new regulations means for managers
and investors.
• Profiles 10 highly successful hedge fund
managers
• Addresses the Madoff scandal, as well as
other lesser known Ponzi schemes, and analyzes the ripple effect
felt throughout the industry as a result of these and other
scandals
Despite the performance of some of these funds in the last few
years, hedge funds are here to stay. In this Third Edition,
Getting Started in Hedge Funds, Strachman provides an
updated "how-to" guide for investors interested in hedge funds in
this era of "new normal."
