So hedge fund is a term that has really lost a lot of meaning in recent years. These days it basically just means a managed financial institution that facilitates complex investment strategies that cater exclusively to high net worth individuals. But that wasn’t always the case. You see hedge funds actually have a really specific role in the world of high finance and in this video we are going to find out what makes them work.

Economics Explained so the average return of the top-100 hedge funds was the same as the average market return. I’m curious to know: what is the average return of the top 20% of hedge funds by AUM? I think that would be a better representation of the industry, as the spread across 100 firms could be very wide and the signal could get diluted.
It will be well worth it. It is like you gave us the secrets of power or something.🤣

To manage investment risk, consider maintaining a broad diversification of your investments that reflects your personal risk tolerance, time horizon, and the nature of your financial goal.
Remember, diversification is an approach to help manage investment risk. It does not eliminate the risk of loss if security prices decline. Because investing can be complicated, consider working with a financial professional to help guide you on your wealth-building journey.

Fun Fact: Warren Buffet once made a million dollar bet that 5 of the top rated hedge funds in the US would fail to beat the market over a 10 year term. By the time the bet was over the hedge funds had earned 36% to the market's 126% returns, and lost more EVERY YEAR except one. Despite this, the fund managers took home hundreds of millions in fees and salaries for the 'good job'
Makes you think...
Hedge fund managers and their clients do not care too much about beating market rates of return. The reason why billionaires dump lump sums into hedge funds is because their potential losses are capped at 10%. If they had all their money in the markets, coronavirus would have wiped out half their portfolio.
@@wngmartin
and 100% of the debt would remain. leaving most billionaires with negative equity and infact bankrupt.
Martin G exactly, at fund I work for, we maximize our risk ratios (sharpe, treynor, etc) to gauge investor preference for risk. The measurement Buffett displayed was simply arithmetic returns, not geometric. Our clients prefer not being exposed to certain markets and are far more satisfied knowing that we have never delivered a negative year. Our ability take on exposures across any asset class or derivative enables us to act extraordinarily fast to generally offset any losses with negatively correlated positions. Investing in hedge funds requires high due diligence because some certainly fail to deliver this objective, but many still do, and those are far more valuable than any index fund.
As Cliff Asness has said, they don't compete with the S&P since the market ignores position sizing. Hedge funds are not taking 5 million to invest, they manage billions of dollars, try investing that in the market without hickjacking the price of a stock. 6% on a 30 billion fund is not that bad if you think about it.
Martin G can u plz explain why 10% loss is the cap? Isn’t it possible the fund fails to return anything

Based on this explanation of the "structure," it's hard to believe that this arrangement was ever about anything but avoiding taxes. Tax avoidance and hedging risk are really separate goals. You could buy options to hedge risks. The take home lesson is to have a tax haven to offload your profits onto.

Hedge funds aren't supposed to be hedged, they're supposed to be _hedges_. They are investment vehicles with alpha that is uncorrelated to the market. The good ones have better alpha than the S&P (net fees). The hedge fund actually shouldn't hedge its own risk, that is the investor's job.
Not true!! If uncorrelated with the market, then you cannot measure them against S&P!!! And this is exactly their argument for them being them... :DDD

Since most of your video referred to US tax rates and such, I assume that you're trying to talk about how things work in the US. Your explanation of the ownership structure and the assets of a partnership are somewhat wrong. They're still somewhat accurate in the broad strokes and what it all means for tax purposes, but a lot of the details are wrong. Partnerships are taxed in a way such that it supposedly would have the same effect as if the partner held a proportionate interest in those assets equal to his percentage interest in the partnership, and dealing with all the special cases involved makes partnership tax law quite complicated. The partnership is still a separate legal entity, and enters into contracts in its own name. You also said partnerships aren't companies, but here you confused the meaning of corporation and company. Partnerships are not corporations, but they are companies. I don't know if this is a lack of familiarity with US law and terminology or a slip of the tongue. Corporations are definitely taxed quite differently than non-corporations, and any entity with more than one owner that's not a corporation is taxed as a partnership. But the term "company" refers to any entity, incorporated or not, and doesn't really have any legal meaning in US tax law.
The loophole you mention of shipping your profits to an insurance company in an offshore jurisdiction still works, but makes you subject to the Base Erosion Anti-Abuse Tax (BEAT) that was introduced in the TCJA tax overhaul. The rate isn't as high as income taxes, but it specifically helps deal with the practice of having US companies pay deductible expenses to related companies that are not required to pay US taxes, thus eroding the tax base of the US. How it's calculated is very complicated, as it needs to be to prevent people from abusing tax laws with convoluted structures while not overly penalizing those who are operating in the normal bounds of business. www.taxpolicycenter.org/briefing-book/what-tcja-base-erosion-and-anti-abuse-tax-and-how-does-it-work
The carried interest loophole was also supposed to be closed by the TCJA, but unlike with the BEAT, I haven't done any continuing education on the topic so I don't know exactly what happened there.

I have been following you since the very beginning and have seen you grow. Your work and dedication has inspired me to start my own channel and put in a lot of effort
Looking forward to your support and advice as always!
what did I learn: hedge funds are great to avoid taxes ! even with 0% growth, the fact that you aren't paying income tax makes it a good thing
That is, for the managers themselves
Hedge - is a tax laundry as losses are brought forward so investments are tax negative.
That makes no sense. They still pay a capital gains tax. I'd rather pay the capital gains tax and make a return than make nothing and lose to inflation.
As a former stockbroker, hedge fund managers are premier sales people. That being said, it's a freaking hard af job to land as a lot of people in the finance industry are competing for that position. Nowadays however, I've seen the wealthy just doing their own hedging. I've talked with a dude who has an account that is just for shorting stocks and was shorting about $1 billion worth of stocks.

Hey EE, have you considered making a video about Keynes's idea for Bancor? It's an intriguing idea I've almost never seen discussed outside the likes of IMF White Papers, and the logic behind it (punish trade surpluses as much as trade deficits in order to stabilize global currency flows and avert recessions) is so interesting that I think it deserves more attention. At the very least, I'd love to see an actual economist try to explain its bewilderingly simple (yet definitely bewildering) logic, and you could cover the Triffin Dilemma/Triffin Paradox for those of us who want to see you tackle more arcane concepts in economics. Thanks for the videos.

Not all hedge funds are trying to "beat the market" because many don't invest in stocks. There are many hedge funds that invest in alternative assets (art, short term business loans, short term real estate loans, movies for example). The purpose of these in the client's portfolio is not to outperform stocks, it is to diversify. Even hedge funds that do invest in stocks and traditional assets may be using a strategy that has a low correlation to the overall market. Maximizing return is the highest priority for poor people. Diversifying and normalizing returns are #1 for wealthy people, maximizing is second.
Thank you this was very helpful and informative 👍👍
I believe that when it come financial market, working for the money shouldn't be the priority rather we work for the assets that are profitable by so doing cash flows in.
While there’s merit in only risking money you can afford to lose, there’s also a risk with being undercapitalized.
A profitable outcome is not the result of luck but to apply the right institute which are profitable with experience of professionals over countless economic shifts.
Yea I believe that every market is worth profiting from but not when one is naive.

What it really means it identifies an investor as a high net worth experienced investors. Important in connection with the "fiduciary responsibility" of the Investment Advisor.
Such clients can take big risks, they know what they are doing and they will not be broke if an investment goes south on them.
If you are a retiree and invest your life savings, the Investment Advisor is not allowed to let you invest in high-risk investments because he has the responsibility to warn you and protect your interests.

I heard you used to be able to get over 5% with a savings account.
When I was a kid I was making that in my savings account that credit union.
Most of the early and even mid 90's. It's why it's rather sad to see the pathetic savings today... and CD's they're even worse than a savings account back then.
And we wonder why we have investment boom and bust cycles increasing in oscillation and devastation. And businesses are consolidating to fewer and fewer.
End game of capitalism though... consolidated a few or one big corporation that owns it all... then it either goes broke because it can't find enough buyers as everyone is broke and spins off all its capacity. And/or mass of people so poor rebel and change the system. And/or to draw attention elsewhere a war is started with some other nation. Nothing like a war to pacify the people... seriously though a congressman back in 1860's just as the US Civil War was coming to an end, suggested going to war with a variety of nations as way to unify (pacify) the country.
Of course, those were the days when you paid 20% on your mortgage.
