Last week Deutsche Bank published its annual Hedge Fund Survey for 2009. Although the report provides an in-depth summary of current market dynamics and benefits of alternative investing, I thought it was worth noting that risk management and transparency were among the top selection criteria for investors in hedge funds. The report also mentions building regulatory pressures, which is in line with what we have heard lately from the Fed and the SEC.
By now, its safe to say that spreadsheets are the leading tool for managing hedge fund investment strategies. With hedge funds predicted at $200 Billion for 2009, a strategy for monitoring and controlling these critical spreadsheets would be prudent for increasing transparency.
