Are You Hedging Wisely? Come to GAIM USA


We are one week away from GAIM USA and the news around the hedge fund industry continues to be fast and furious. Over the last week, considerable ink has been used to cover everything from fee structures and returns to pyramid schemes and insider trading. Just yesterday, Mariner Investment Group announced that it was taking over Concordia Advisors.  What does this all mean? It is simple. Hedge funds are here to stay. Sure the industry will continue to evolve but one thing is for sure, investors need products that zig when the markets zag and vice versus.  In case you missed the headlines here are a few to keep you occupied prior to coming to Boca:
