【内容简介】
Over the last few years, hedge funds have become even more attractive to institutional and individual investors. Their performance in both bull and bear markets are second to none, and their risk/reward profiles make sense in today's dynamic financial environment.
Whether you're working with hedge funds or thinking about investing in them, you must have a firm understanding of this unique investment vehicle in order to achieve maximum success. In Hedge Funds, Editors Greg N. Gregoriou, Georges Hübner, Nicolas Papageorgiou, and Fabrice Rouah bring together over thirty of the top practitioners and academics in the hedge fund industry to provide you with the latest findings in this field.
Divided into five comprehensive parts, this guide reveals some of the most important issues encountered by today's academics and practitioners as they work with hedge funds. Their individual analysis deals with a variety of topics, from new methods of hedge fund performance evaluation to portfolio allocation and risk/return matters. Although some of the information is technical in nature, including econometric and statistical models, an understanding and applicability of the results as well as theoretical developments are stressed.
Topics discussed include:
Integrating hedge funds into the traditional portfolio
Hedge fund allocation under higher moment and illiquidity
Applying securitization technology to hedge funds
Common factor strategies for hedge funds
Analysis of risk-adjusted performance of global assets
Fat tail risk in portfolios of hedge funds
Hedge funds and the stale pricing issue
Filled with in-depth insight and expert advice, Hedge Funds can help you—whether you're an institutional investor or high-net-worth individual—make the most of this flexible investment vehicle.
