EBF Comments on Hedge Fund Portfolios

21 June 2007

The EBF issued its comments on the IOSCO’s consultation on principles for the valuation of hedge fund portfolios. The EBF agrees with both the IOSCO’s description of the economic background and evolution of the hedge funds market and its assessment regarding the importance of the valuation of hedge fund portfolios, as well as the related difficulties.

The EBF particularly supports the proposed principles and suggests that the principles for the valuation of portfolios be supplemented with principles for the risk management of hedge funds.
