SECOND  EDITION
Along with being one of the hottest investments around,

hedge funds are also among the most secretive--due to the

fact that they are prohibited by law from engaging in any

form of public marketing or advertising.
Getting Started in Hedge Funds, Second Edition removes the

veil of secrecy that surrounds this profitable investment

vehicle and provides investors with a complete and highly

accessible introduction to the world of hedge funds--their

history; their effect on world economies; and the tactics and

investment strategies associated with them.
Filled with comprehensive updates and additions--including

new regulations and the current state of the industry--Getting

Started in Hedge Funds, Second Edition offers you the latest

information coming out of this continuously growing area of

finance. Written by financial insider Daniel Strachman, this

book:
    ~  Outlines how hedge funds operate--from structures to

regulations
    ~  Develops guidelines for choosing a hedge fund using

returns, performance, and risk
    ~   Profiles the strategies of both heavyweights and

up-and-coming fund managers
    ~   Shows new investors how to get in on the action
    ~  And much more
Unlike the technology bubble of the late twentieth century,

which lasted a mere three years,
hedge funds are here to stay. So if you're looking to gain a

better understanding of hedge funds, look no further than

Getting Started in Hedge Funds, Second Edition.
