The Hedge Fund Standards Board today announced the launch of a new investor chapter. Signatories include many of the biggest investors in hedge funds, accounting in total for hedge fund assets of about $180bn.
Antonio Borges, chairman of the HFSB, told Financial News: "The whole point of this project is to get all parties to converge. This is not the managers self-regulating.
