BusinessDay – In line with our aim of informing readers of opportunities within the alternative investment space, we decided to do a review of hedge funds for this month’s fund review. First, a warning:
hedge funds are complex, sophisticated investments that are not suitable for everyone. While progress is being made from a regulatory standpoint to bring them on par with collective investment schemes such as unit trusts, they are not there yet, and even when they might be, the first rule applies: always understand exactly what you are investing in.
