WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND: CONGRESS CONSIDERS REGULATING MORTGAGE DERIVATIVES

Friday, July 2, 2010

"But here is the punch line: The regulation doesn’t touch what are likely the next commodity crises (note the plural on crisis). Forget the fact that the long only commodity ETFs could be a volcano ready to explode on the supply and demand commodity ecosystem. The issue is “Bernie Madoff-style” hedge fund fraud: it will happen again. And this is unnecessary."

Regulatory changes discussed

"However, it should be emphasized that CTAs and direct managed futures accounts are currently significantly regulated relative to hedge funds. What is missing from financial services reform is a spotlight on the many managed account protections that could be applied to the hedge fund world, including private sector counter surveillance, a version of account segregation for fund investments and transparency (gasp...) in fund investments to varying levels."

What They Are Saying About the Book:

“Managed futures is one of the world’s non-correlated asset classes and should be considered in any modern portfolio. High-Performance Managed Futures shows investors how to succeed in this arena and does so in a logical and interesting format.”

— Scott Slutsky, author, Master of the Futures and The Complete Guide to Electronic Trading Futures; Managing Director, PFGBEST Global Service Division; Board of Directors, CME Group, Inc. PAC

Key Book Excerpts

-From Chapter 12:

"From one perspective, managed futures owes a large degree of its success and credibility to government regulation and its associated investor protections such as performance auditing and account segregation rules (unavailable in hedge fund investments)."
