Hedge Fund Non-Executive Director Training
23rd January 2012...The role of fund directors is increasingly under the spotlight. In response, Quickstep Consulting is providing one-to-one Hedge Fund Non-Executive Director Consultations. This bespoke offering will enable non-executive directors and would-be directors the opportunity to assess the risk involved in a given fund from a director perspective.
The Weavering case, in which damages of USD111 million were awarded against two non-executive directors of a Cayman Islands hedge fund, brought further investor attention to the responsibilities of the N.E.D.s sitting on the boards of their funds. In addition, Ireland has just introduced a Corporate Governance Code for Collective Investment Schemes and Management Companies. This code of best practice, while voluntary, is considered by many to be a precursor to a greater legal framework which will, among other objectives, seek to clarify existing and prescribe greater obligations on fund directors.
