Hedge

As a hedge fund manager you are facing a number of challenges today: increased pressure on management and performance fees, higher reporting and transparency requirements from regulators and investors. Established managers have the challenge of adapting their operating models to accommodate these new demands.

We understand the need to be responsive, timely and accurate.

IQ-EQ Fund and Investment Services provides one-stop solutions to hedge funds and alternative investment fund managers. We provide regulatory infrastructure, managed compliance services, post trade surveillance, delegated risk management, regulatory reporting (for example Annex IV, FATCA, Regulatory reporting) and compliance software.

Hedge FAQs

What are hedge funds?

Hedge funds are sophisticated investment pools that use different strategies to take both short and long-term positions across equities, bonds, currencies, and other financial assets. Their goal is to generate returns at a reduced risk.

How do hedge funds differ from traditional investment funds?

Unlike traditional investment funds, which typically include stocks or bonds, hedge funds have the flexibility to invest in a broader range of assets, including property, pensions, derivatives, and currencies. This allows hedge fund managers to pursue unique strategies not available to traditional funds.

What are some investment strategies used by hedge funds?

Hedge funds use a variety of investment strategies compared to traditional asset classes. These can include event-driven approaches, global macro strategies, and various forms of arbitrage.

Are hedge funds regulated?

While not as heavily regulated as mutual funds, hedge funds do face regulatory oversight due to their different risk-reward profile.
