... Or How Hedge Funds Can Navigate Market Volatility and Have
The Ability To Generate Better Risk
Adjusted Returns. There's no
doubt that a few high-profile, high-flying fund managers have earned hedge
funds a bad rap in recent years. But we
at Federal Street Advisors believe that hedge funds play a healthy role in
client portfolios. In our new white paper, Kristin Fafard, CFA - our Director of Research; Mark Peters, CFA - Principal; and Richard M. Tardiff, CFP, JD - our Head of
Financial Planning, offer their
perspectives on hedge fund investing. We'll offer a brief overview of hedge
fund strategies and terminology, explain how they differ from other investment
vehicles, discuss why the current market environment is advantageous to hedge
funds, and reveal some of the opportunities our hedge fund managers are poised
to embrace. We'll also offer a checklist
for fiduciaries to consider when conducting due diligence on hedge fund
managers. Click through to read the new white paper.
