WEST PALM BEACH, FL (HEDGECO.NET) – The Bank of England issued a biannual Financial Stability Report on hedge funds, implying a weakening of UK financial stability by trading in complex financial means and over leveraging funds.<\/p>\n
There are sound reasons for the Bank to retain a heavy interest in supervision issues. It regulates the interbank system of credit transfers, and would have to sanction any bail-out of a British bank that was in crisis. <\/p>\n
Even if the FSA<\/span> is responsible for company inspections, it still leaves wider issues of regulation to the Bank. <\/p>\n Hedge fund managers who dissagreed with the criticism said: \u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c5\u201cThe days of LTCM<\/span>, where there was very little collateral used in investments, are over.\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c2\u009d Hedge funds seldom trade without a \u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c5\u201chedged position\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c2\u009d to mitigate the risk and no longer leverage themselves to maximum levels. <\/p>\n Hedge funds tend to have very tight credit spreads, and are something to watch out for, as well as the risk of sudden changes in capital flows, especially related to hedge funds. If investors don\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u201e\u00a2t start to see better hedge fund returns, then they will certainly stop pouring money in and may in fact start pulling money out. This reversal could seriously impact stock markets. <\/p>\n Many hedge fund managers are making changes in technology and controls that need updating to deal with the new volatility of the market. The biggest risk for any international company remains currency fluctuations, and this continues to pose a challenge for corporate treasurers. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n Alex Akesson HedgeCo.Net is a premier hedge fund database and community for qualified and accredited investors only.
