- On April 15, 2008, two private sector committees established in September 2007 by the President’s Working Group on Financial Markets released separate yet complimentary sets of best practices for hedge fund asset managers and investors.
- The Asset Managers’ Committee Report counsels hedge funds to take a comprehensive approach to strengthening practices in “all phase of their business,” emphasizing controls and enhanced procedures in five critical areas: disclosure, valuation, risk management, trading and business operations and compliance, conflicts and business practices.
- The Investors’ Committee Report contains two parts - a Fiduciary’s Guide for fiduciaries considering an investment in hedge funds on behalf of their principals (e.g., pension funds), and an Investor’s Guide for executing and administering a hedge fund program.
