In the hedge fund space, the role of a Compliance Manager has never been more critical. With regulatory landscapes evolving, it's essential for funds to stay ahead of the curve to mitigate risks and maintain integrity. I've witnessed firsthand the transformative impact a top-tier Compliance Manager can have on a hedge fund's operations. These professionals are ensuring that funds not only comply with current regulations but are also well-prepared for future legislative changes. Why Hedge Funds Need Expert Compliance Managers: - Regulatory Expertise: They possess an in-depth understanding of FCA regulations, AIFMD, and global compliance standards. - Risk Mitigation: Proactive identification and management of compliance risks protect the fund's reputation and financial health. - Strategic Advisory: Compliance Managers offer strategic counsel to the board, aligning regulatory requirements with business goals. For candidates, the hedge fund industry offers a dynamic and challenging environment where your expertise will not only be valued but will also be pivotal in driving the fund's success. For clients, partnering with a trusted recruiter means gaining access to a curated pool of top compliance talent, ensuring your fund is equipped to navigate the complexities of the regulatory environment. My commitment is to bridge the gap between exceptional talent and leading hedge funds. Let's connect and explore how we can elevate your compliance strategy to new heights. #ComplianceRecruitment #HedgeFundCareers #RiskManagement

Hedge Fund Demands $100 Million From Its Compliance Team After SEC Probe Chatham settled SEC investigation into bond-trading practices Anthony Melchiorre’s firm blames consultants for its troubles Wall Street firms usually grumble in private after getting punished by regulators. Anthony Melchiorre’s Chatham Asset Management is dragging its advisers into a public legal battle for $100 million. The $6 billion hedge fund is demanding that Adviser Compliance Associates not only cover Chatham’s costs for settling a US probe last year, but also damage to its business. In an unusual lawsuit, Chatham claims the outside consultant, founded by former regulators, failed to prevent trading practices that ran afoul of authorities. https://lnkd.in/gYb9XazS #recordkeeping #whatsapp #compliance #sec #text #texting #textmessaging #SMS #MMS #imessage #facetime Apple Google Meta Facebook #Android #apple #google #meta #facebook #compliance #financialservices #technology #whatsapparchiving WhatsApp WeChat

"How Acuity Knowledge Partners can help Forensic analysis has emerged as a very useful niche tool for investors.

For bearish investors, forensic analysis is important because accounting-related anomalies can be a strong catalyst for short positions. For bullish investors, forensic analysis provides an important layer of investment validation. It analyses whether a company’s historical results are sustainable and support projected results, or whether these results are tainted by factors such as questionable accounting. It also analyses companies’ strategic and operating choices. Our Forensic Analysis team helps clients navigate complex accounting treatment in financial statements and its impact on earnings and the balance sheet.

A hedge fund is a seeking to recover SEC fines from external compliance consultants who allegedly okayed certain practices. I will tell you the truth. I can't imagine that any consultants would unequivocally give advice on an issue like this. External consultants always qualify their opinions, just as internal compliance folks do. We say things like "my understanding is ...," "from my observation, I believe ...", etc. I would be surprised if this lawsuit went anywhere. Consultants do not represent the SEC, and that would be clear in contracts. We will see! https://lnkd.in/eB2Qwm8a
