Analysis of Fund Operations and Future Trends. 330 $aAlternative investments such as hedge funds, private equity, and fund of funds continue to be of strong interest among the investment community. As these investment strategies have become increasingly complex, fund managers have continued to devote more time and resources towards developing best practice operations to support the actual trade processing, fund accounting, and back-office mechanics that allow these strategies to function. Representative of this operational growth, estimates have indicated that fund managers have seen increased operating budgets of 30% or more in recent years. In today?s highly regulated environment, alternative investment managers have also increasingly had to integrate rigorous compliance and cybersecurity oversight into fund operations. Additionally, with recent advances in artificial intelligence and big data analysis, fund managers are devoting larger portions of their information technology budgets towards realizing technology-based operational efficiencies. Alternative investment fund service providers have also substantially increased their scope and breadth of their operations-related services. Furthermore, investors are increasingly performing deep-dive due diligence on fund manager operations at both fund level and management company levels. This book provides current and practical guidance on the foundations of how alternative investment managers build and manage their operations. While other publications have focused on generalized overviews of historical trading procedures across multiple asset classes, and the technical intricacies of specific legacy operational procedures,Alternative Investment Operations will be the first book to focus on explaining up-to-date information on the specific real-world operational practices actually employed by alternative investment managers. This book will focus on how to actually establish and manage fund operations. Alternative Investment Operations will be an invaluable up-to-date resource for fund managers and their operations personnel as well as investors and service providers on the implementation and management of best practice operations. 606 $aBank marketing 606 $aInversions$2thub 606 $aMàrqueting bancari$2thub 606 $aFinancial Services$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/626000 608 $aLlibres electrònics$2thub 615 0$aBank marketing. 615 7$aInversions 615 7$aMàrqueting bancari 615 14$aFinancial Services. 676 $a332.6 676 $a332 700 $aScharfman$b Jason$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0913668 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910416129003321 996 $aAlternative Investment Operations$92046951 997 $aUNINA
