Hedge Fund Risk Fundamentals: Solving the Risk Management and Transparency Challenge

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: In the constantly evolving hedge fund marketplace, nothing is more central?but in many ways, more amorphous and elusive?than risk. Yet there remains no standard for analyzing and measuring risk within this highly secretive, largely unregulated field, leaving the thousands of hedge funds?and the tens of thousands of hedge fund investors?in dangerously dim light. The industry has not solved the `transparency` challenge?communicating risk to investors without disclosing proprietary information. Hedge Fund Risk Fundamentals is the first book to bring these issues to the forefront. With clarity, concision, and minimal math, Richard Horwitz lays out the key components and the cutting-edge processes in the field of hedge fundrisk management today. Against that backdrop he presents a groundbreaking utility destined to set the standard for transparency and risk management within the hedge fund universe. You`ll learn why, when it comes to risk management,… [detailed...]

Hedge Funds for Canadians : New Investment Strategies for Winning in Any Market

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionFrustrated with mutual fund and stock market performance? Looking for alternative ways to invest your money? Hedge your bets with Hedge Funds!? It`s no secret that stock market performance over recent years has been disappointing, to say the least-or abysmal, to be more realistic. And when the markets go down, mutual funds go down with them. So what are Canadian investors to do? Hedge funds are alternative investments that are designed to provide investors with strong returns during both bull and bear markets. Often misunderstood by the average investor, the popularity of hedge funds has been growing rapidly in Canada, thanks to regulatory changes and the continued poor performance of more traditional investment vehicles. More widely available than ever before, hedge funds can reduce overall risk and volatility, and improve performance regardless of the general stock market direction. … [detailed...]

Hedge Funds: Courtesans of Capitalism

Publisher: —
Description: Like the courtesans of a bygone age, hedge funds cater to the wealthy and project an aura of mystery and excitement. But as the Long Term Capital Management debacle showed, their activities affect us all. Far from neutralising risk, as their name might suggest, some are simply vehicles for large-scale speculation - raiding currencies, disrupting bond markets, and embarrassing governments. This book looks in detail at the secret world of hedge funds, how they work, the larger than life characters who run them, their private passions and the risks they run. [detailed...]

Hedge Funds: Myths and Limits

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Hedge Funds are one of the fastest growing sectors of asset management. The industry has changed from being a small number of firms that features big name players such as George Soros and Julian Robertson, to a large market involving many thousands of companies. Press reports of the spectacular success and failure of firms such as the Quantum Fund, the Tiger Fund and LTCM have led to many misconceptions concerning hedge funds, their power and their influence. This state of affairs is not helped by the fact that they are exempt from regulation and little is known about them. This book dispels several misconceptions about hedge funds` operations and provides an impartial, up to date and comprehensive blend of theoretical and practical analysis of the market. The book also shows readers the fundamental concepts needed to understand strategies used by the funds and their potential positive and negative contributions to investment portfolios. [detailed...]

Hedonic Methods in Housing Markets: Pricing Environmental Amenities and Segregation

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Cities are growing worldwide and their sprawl is increasingly challenged for its pressure on open spaces and environmental quality. Economic arguments can help to decide about the trade-off between preserving environmental quality and developing housing and business surfaces, provided the benefits of environmental quality are adequately quantified. To this end, this book focuses on the use and advancement of the “hedonic approach”, an economic valuation technique that analyses and quantifies the sources of rent and property price differentials. Starting from theoretical foundations, the hedonic approach is applied to the valuation of natural land use preservation and noise abatement measures, as well as to residential segregation and discrimination, extending the analysis to the role of the buyers and sellers` identity on housing market prices and to the issue of environmental justice.

Frieda Arkin
Hedwig and Berti

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description Thirty-five years after publication of her first novel, The Dorp (followed by other works on cooking and gardening), Frieda Arkin returns to the world of fiction to give us another darkly humorous novel, Hedwig and Berti. Hedwig and Berti is a saga of the totally unlikely marriage of a grandly Teutonic woman, Hedwig Kessler, and her diminutive cousin Berti, two upper-class German Jews forced to leave their homeland during the rise of the Nazis. They flee to London, then to New York City, and from there, finally, to a university town in Kansas. In London, Hedwig gives birth to a daughter whose broodingly dark construction and immense genius for the piano point back in time to the tragedy of her bloodline. This is a story of prejudice taken to extremes, both within the domain of a severely class-conscious German-Jewish family and beyond it. The characters are subtle, and finely-honed, and their story is told with grace and… [detailed...]

Patricia Marie Calton
Hegel`s Metaphysics of God

2001 y.
Publisher: Ashgate
Description: This volume presents Hegel`s response to Kant`s claim that metaphysics in general and, in particular, knowledge of God, is beyond the grasp of human knowledge. Calton argues that Hegel uses his version of the ontological proof not only to establish the existence of God, but also to develop a Trinitarian divine ontology. The book opens with a discussion of the traditional version of the ontological proof as it is set out by Anselm in his `Proslogium` and an analysis of the critiques of this traditional formulation of the proof offered by both Kant and Hegel. However, the main focus of the book concerns Hegel`s reformulation of the ontological proof as a description of God`s self-expression in the world and of God`s attaining complete self-knowledge through human consciousness. Exploring Hegel`s proof as his description of God`s activity of self-expression and self-knowledge, Calton demonstrates that Hegel uses the ontological proof not only to establish that God exists, but also to… [detailed...]

Description: How is the present crisis of left-wing thought to be understood? To what extent does it call into the question the idea of social totality that underpinned Marxism and many other socialist theories? Does the concept of hegemony imply a new logic that goes beyond the essentialism of classical Marxist thought? These are some of the questions that this now seminal book attempts to answer. It traces the genealogy of the present crisis, from the nineteenth-century debates to the contemporary emergence of new forms of struggle, making it a classic text both for understanding hegemony and for focusing on present social struggles and their significance for democratic theory.

In contrast to the recent literature on America as empire, it explains that the primary goal of the foreign and economic policies of the United States is a world which increasingly reflects the American way of doing business, not the formation or management of an empire. Contextualizing both the Iraq war and recent plant closings in the U.S., noted author John Agnew shows how American hegemony has created a world in which power is no longer only shaped territorially. He argues in a sobering conclusion that we are consequently entering a new era of global power, one in which the the world the US has made no longer works to its singular advantage. [detailed...]
