HEDGE FUNDS
FUNDS TYPES & OFFERINGS

Hedge Fund Development Services

There are many different types of hedge fund vehicles for investment or business trading companies.

Which vehicle is right for you? It depends on which financial instruments (or combination of instruments) that you will be trading (securities, commodities/futures, or currencies). It also depends on where your investors are located tax-wise; in the US or offshore (international).

We offer a new hedge fund business plan service to figure out what you need before you commence with any type of fund.

Securities Funds : If you trade securities, including but not limited to stocks, stock options, mutual funds, bonds, ETFs, and single stock futures, you will be interested in a securities fund. If your fund has more than $30 million, you are regulated by the SEC on a national level and you probably need to register as an investment adviser. If you fall under the SEC limits, you are regulated by the states where you do business.

Commodities/Futures Funds : If you trade commodities/futures, including but not limited to commodities, futures, and broad-based indexes (like eminis), you will be interested in a commodities/futures fund. These funds, no matter of size, are regulated by the CFTC and NFA.

Forex (Currency) Funds : Spot forex currencies are not regulated by the SEC or CFTC. But the definition of spot forex is narrower than many people understand. Currencies futures are not spot forex; neither are spot forward contracts with longer expiration dates.

Onshore or Offshore: First decide on securities, commodities/futures, spot forex currencies, or special purpose. Next, decide on onshore (US), or offshore (international) , or both at the same time (master/feeder funds ).
