Date: March 2006
Type: White Paper
Rating: (0)

Overview: In the fast paced world of hedge funds, managers face a myriad of new trading and operational challenges. There is increased pressure from investors and regulators for more transparency.

Managers are now at a crossroads, and are faced with a major decision: either to build comprehensive infrastructure or to outsource their middle- and back-office operations and technology.
