Introduction

What if you sat down with 30 hedge fund veterans and picked their brains? What if you spent over $80,000 hiring professionals with seven to 30 or more years of experience to provide you their insights on what is developing in the hedge fund industry, and what is important now?

This is the premise on which I constructed The Hedge Fund Book: A Training Manual for Professionals and Capital-Raising Executives.

This book is a discussion, a captured forum, not a dissertation, letter to Congress, or formal legal document. You will find less formality here than in most books, because that is how I am used to writing and transferring knowledge through speeches, e-mails, and blog posts. Some may appreciate this approach and form of communication; others will surely not.

The Hedge Fund Book: A Training Manual for Professionals and Capital-Raising Executives will provide many benefits to those seeking to understand and work in this field. Our team at the Hedge Fund Group has raised millions of dollars of capital for hedge funds and personally worked with over 1,000 fund managers over the past several years. In the past we have freely shared our knowledge through our blogs, which you may still access today. They include:
