Business Finance CPD Online Course Description

Hedge Funds

Add to cart

The hedge fund industry has been the subject of much publicity in recent years. High-profile events such as the Russian crisis in 1998 and the subsequent near-collapse of Long-Term Capital Management (LTCM), the spectacular success of the likes of George Soros and the unprecedented growth of the industry itself in the last decade have all served to keep hedge funds very much in the news.

Hedge funds, however, remain one of the most misunderstood and misrepresented areas of finance. Nevertheless, they provide wide opportunities to diversify an investor's portfolio of stocks and bonds. This tutorial provides background information on hedge funds in general and examines in detail their characteristics and investment strategies.

Objectives
you can expect to learn:

  • Define a hedge fund, list its characteristics and main investors and understand the reasons behind the fall of the infamous Long-Term Capital Management hedge fund
  • Describe the many distinct and varied investment styles that hedge funds adopt
