Hedge Fund Compliance + Website: Risks, Regulation, And Management

Compliance is one of the fastest growing areas in the hedge fund space. Despite strong interest in this area, there have been no recent books dedicated to clearly explaining the modern hedge fund compliance environment and outlining the recent changes in this highly dynamic field. Hedge Fund Compliance + Website: Risks, Regulation, and Management will address this need by directly appealing to a target audience of investors, fund managers, service providers, and prospective job seekers in this area. While other highly technical legal books have focused on the specifics of certain regulations, Hedge Fund Compliance will instead provide a straight-forward approach towards understanding the fundamental building blocks of the hedge fund compliance function.
Key areas include:

• Techniques for designing and running a hedge fund compliance program
• Examples of highly in-demand templates of core hedge fund compliance documentation and checklists
• Methods for investors to evaluate and monitor hedge fund compliance programs
• Case studies and example scenarios in hedge fund governance successes and failures

Hedge Fund Compliance will serve as a unique resource for the hedge fund market to both reference compliance principals and documentation and to promote compliance dialogues. It will leverage the author’s real-world experience providing training to financial regulators, consulting with government entities on financial regulation, developing compliance functions, and analyzing over 5,000 hedge fund compliance structures across the globe.
