Hedge Funds in 2016 - Evolving Trends and Structures Webinar

Despite recent performance concerns, institutional investors continue to allocate to hedge funds in a market environment otherwise devoid of promising investment opportunities. In response, however, fund sponsors and managers have been grappling with increasing demands on fund structures, fees, transparency and liquidity.

• Developments in fee structures, lock-ups and MFNs

• Convergence of private equity and hedge fund structures
• Financing challenges and opportunities
• Increased investor transparency
