Download or read book Guide to Hedge Funds written by Philip Coggan and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-09-20 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hedge fund managers are the new "masters of the universe." The best earn more than $1 billion a year and are so sought after that they can afford to turn investor money away. The funds they run have, to some extent, established an alternative financial system, replacing banks as lenders to risky companies, acting as providers of liquidity to markets and insurers of last resort for risks such as hurricanes, and replacing pension funds and mutual funds as the most significant investors in many companies—even in some cases buying companies outright. The revised and updated second edition of this lively guide sheds much needed light on the world of hedge funds by explaining what they are, what they do, who the main players are, the regulations affecting them, the arguments as to whether they are a force for good or bad, and what the future holds for them. "More people have a view about hedge funds than know about them. Philip Coggan bridges the knowledge gap in this clearly written guide. Every chapter is a goldmine of information and analysis, making it easy to learn about hedge funds. No investor, no investment adviser, no trustee, no dinner-table conversationalist should express opinions on the sector until they have read this book." —Elroy Dimson, BGI Professor of Investment Management, London Business School "While much has been written about hedge fund strategies and their (occasionally spectacular) failures, we have not yet seen a general primer to help the investor understand the world of hedge funds. Philip Coggan presents us with exactly that—a well-written, succinct summary of a world we all need to understand better." —Rob Arnott, Chairman of Research Affiliates and Editor Emeritus of the Financial Analysts Journal

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Investing in Real Estate Private Equity is your practical guide to investing in real estate through private offerings with established companies. The passive investment strategies for wealth building and income generation described in this book have traditionally been used by some of the world's most sophisticated institutional investors, but are now available to nearly everyone thanks to recent regulatory changes. This handbook will guide you through the process of building your own diversified real estate portfolio by identifying and making investments with established and experienced private real estate operators. This is NOT another get-rich-quick real estate fix & flip scheme. You will NOT be encouraged to sign up for conferences or clubs to learn a no-money-down investment strategy. This IS a practical guide meant to help you avoid common mistakes and navigate more skillfully through an often byzantine industry. You will learn:- What a private real estate investment is; the mechanics of syndicates, funds, and crowdfunding- Fundamentals of basic real estate evaluation- How to evaluate operators and investments- Fees, incentives, and other loads- Common terms and structures- Strategies to evaluate and manage risk- How to create and execute a personalized investment strategyMost people underestimate the time requirements, complexity, risk, and general brain damage involved with buying real estate directly. Thankfully, private real estate investments provide most of the same benefits as direct ownership, while taking advantage of established real estate companies' years of experience, market knowledge, industry reputation, negotiating leverage, and expertise. Even better, they allow investors to diversify their investment allocation across a range of real estate product types (multifamily, retail, office, self-storage, etc.) and throughout the capital stack (equity, debt, mezzanine, and preferred equity), all while working with specialists in each strategy.Written by an experienced practitioner with over $1 billion in transactional experience, this book challenges conventional wisdom and provides an inside look into how the industry actually works. Using the practical tips and strategies found here, you can build your own unique real estate portfolio, manage risk, avoid common mistakes, hopefully make money, and perhaps even have some fun along the way.

Download or read book Finding Private Venture Capital for Your Firm written by Robert J. Gaston and published by . This book was released on 1989-01-17 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How to get private risk capital for your business venture. Each year, more than 490,000 private venture capitalists, or ``business angels,'' commit $56 billion to new and expanding firms owned by over 87,000 entrepreneurs. This private investment activity exceeds that of venture capital firms by 13 times in dollars, and by 40 times in number of transactions. This book is the first to accurately describe who these private investors are, and why they back (or fail to back) certain ventures. It also explains just how the transaction is consummated, with many examples of successful (and unsuccessful) investor-entrepreneur match-ups. Includes nine specific reasons why seriously-considered deals are rejected, and their relative killing power. Based on a representative national sample of ``business angels,'' the data collection for this book took five years to complete and was sponsored by the U.S. Small Business Administration.

Book excerpt: This book is for entrepreneurs who want to realize their vision, want to build a major enterprise, want to change the world. To win, you need two things: cash and speed. You need to get the money and then run like crazy. To get the money, you may want to raise it from venture capital (VC) firms. But the reality is far fewer than 1 in 100 companies approaching VCs ever get to ""take the money."" So, the first section of this book provides a behind-the-scenes look at how VC firms work, and more importantly how they think. You'll get first-hand insight into what you can do to improve your chances and what to avoid that can doom your hopes. The second section of the book will help you ""run."" It covers almost every segment of start-up operations, from product development to financing to staffing to sales and marketing. Gerry Langeler's 30 years as a successful venture capitalist and entrepreneur who raised money from top VC firms, provides the secrets to help you achieve your dreams.
