Funds Talk: April 2013

This newsletter is devoted to discussing legal issues facing alternative asset managers and funds. Since 2008, the alternative asset market has seen a broad convergence of previously distinct asset classes and strategies, such as private equity, hedge funds, debt and claims trading, etc., into a single class — alternative assets. Extending that theme of convergence, this newsletter will focus on multi-disciplinary themes that affect all asset managers, with particular attention paid to new developments and changes in the legal landscape in which the industry operates.

Topics covered in this issue include:

  • SEC Issues Risk Alert on Custody Rule: Advisers Should Take Note
  • Recent and Upcoming Regulation Affecting U.S. Hedge Fund Activity in the EU
  • Securitizations Saved from Drowning in Commodity Pool
  • Don’t Ask, Don’t Waive Standstills: Do the Benefits Justify the Costs?
