This book seeks to provide a critical insight into the use of derivatives made by hedge funds.  It aims to examine the many questions that hedge fund managers may now have to ask themselves in this brave new world of European and American hedge fund and derivatives regulation. The book will provide a classification of hedge funds and their investment strategies and styles, along with risk profiles adopted.  It will delineate a few of the main types of derivatives used by hedge funds, will provide an overview of the regulatory requirements affecting hedge funds in the EU and the US, and will analyse their potential impact on derivatives usage and key discernible trends that reflect this new global regulatory operating landscape. The book will also provide critical analysis and commentary regarding the administration of hedge fund derivatives, reporting derivatives trades, monitoring clearing thresholds, negotiating and documenting hedge fund derivatives, and optimising hedge fund derivatives trading.
