The final vote on the SEC\u00c3\u00af\u00c2\u00bf\u00c2\u00bds proposal will be undertaken in 60-days, following the comment period for individuals interested to make theirremarks over such issue.<\/p>\n<p>  According to Jeff Joseph, managing director at Rydex Investments, this proposal by the SEC \u00c3\u00af\u00c2\u00bf\u00c2\u00bdwill cause advisors to re-evaluate these products, It eliminates one of the barriers.&#8221; Joseph noted.  Other Advisors seem to be mirroring this trend as well. Another manager, Harold Evensky, the chairman of Evensky, Brown &amp; Katz, a Florida based advisory firm said the recent SEC ruling has made  the option of investing his client\u00c3\u00af\u00c2\u00bf\u00c2\u00bds money more real. Evensky said, &#8220;We would be more inclined to look more carefully at them and more inclined to use them.\u00c3\u00af\u00c2\u00bf\u00c2\u00bd<\/p>\n<p>  Growth of global hedge fund industry continues to be strong, as new hedge fund laws have been introduced in places like Germany, India, China, Japan and others. New hedge fund vehicles are also  being introduced as investor demand continues to grow stronger. The growing desire of investment Advisors to put more of their client\u00c3\u00af\u00c2\u00bf\u00c2\u00bds assets into hedge funds indicates that the level of assets  managed by the global hedge fund industry will continue to grow, irrespective of the actions of the SEC.<\/p>\n<p>  New studies show a change in asset allocation ratios from traditional 70\/30 ratios of equities to bonds, to 50\/30\/10 ratios, between equities, bonds, and hedge funds. They also noted that emphasis  is shifting away from the \u00c3\u00af\u00c2\u00bf\u00c2\u00bdone size fits all\u00c3\u00af\u00c2\u00bf\u00c2\u00bd approach to \u00c3\u00af\u00c2\u00bf\u00c2\u00bda framework that considers the particular facts and circumstances for the particular investor.<\/p>\n<p>  New clients are asking their advisors about hedge fund investments, Dennis Carpenter president of Grapevine, an international wealth manager in Texas said. He is more likely to begin recommending  hedge fund instruments, he said such actions helps to \u00c3\u00af\u00c2\u00bf\u00c2\u00bdpeel away a level of mystery for the end user and gives you a higher level of comfort.\u00c3\u00af\u00c2\u00bf\u00c2\u00bd<\/p>\n<p>  Paul Oranika<br \/>  Editor-in-Chief<br \/>  HedgeCo.Net<br \/>  Email: Editor@hedgeco.net<\/p>\n<p>  HedgeCo.Net is a premier hedge fund database and community for qualified and accredited investors only.
