Morgan Lewis Hedge Fund Deskbook 2009: Legal and Practical Guide for a New Era, Contributing Editor (Thomson Reuters/West)

This book is a convenient reference source both for hedge fund managers in the process of organizing new funds and for those who have occasional questions arising from the operation of their existing funds. It covers a broad range of topics, including formation, litigation and enforcement defense, regulation, marketing, compliance, and other issues of interest to the hedge fund industry. Because hedge funds and hedge fund managers are not uniform in structure and strategy, this deskbook is a valuable general reference.

Topics include:

• Recent regulatory developments involving or impacting hedge funds and their managers
• The implications arising from recent enforcement and litigation involving hedge funds
• The various aspects of raising capital and marketing hedge funds
• An overview of employment-related issues for hedge fund managers
• Checklists and schedules for managing hedge funds and registering as a hedge fund manager
• Practical issues a manager may face in organizing a hedge fund in the United States or offshore
• The legal and practical issues that arise in managing the legal risks of hedge funds
