On April 18, 2013, the Regulatory Compliance Association held its Regulation, Operations & Compliance 2013 Symposium (Symposium), at which industry leaders and regulators offered perspectives on hot-button issues facing hedge fund managers and investors.  This article, the second installment in our series covering the Symposium, addresses how managers should address high-priority conflicts of interest; techniques and strategies regulators and prosecutors are using to investigate insider trading; the SEC’s whistleblower program; and Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act compliance.  The first article addressed challenges raised by side letters; evaluating requests for most favored nation provisions; and how hedge fund managers are using funds of one and managed accounts.  See “RCA Symposium Clarifies Current Market Practice on Side Letters, Conflicts of Interest, Insider Trading Investigations, Whistleblowers, FATCA and Use of Managed Accounts Versus Funds of One (Part One of Two),” Hedge Fund Law Report, Vol. 6, No. 24 (Jun. 13, 2013).
