Hedge funds gained their popularity in the U.S. but foreign markets are starting to catch on to the idea. Hedge funds are known for their secrecy and exemption from regulatory rules. This investment vehicle moving overseas only makes it more attractive. There are however a few concerns when thinking about FOREX hedge funds.
- Even less regulatory oversight
- Less legal protection against losses
- For now mostly meant to attract U.S. investors
- Still relatively new and untested
This is not meant to completely discourage FOREX hedge fund investing but to make you aware of the potential risks involved. Hedge funds typically require hundreds of thousands of dollars in initial investments and that would be no small loss in a new trend scam if that's what your first FOREX hedge fund investment turned out to be.
