About the Book

During the last 15 years the hedge fund industry has become one of the most creative and rapid growing areas within the financial industry and has made it hard for regulators to mitigate the potential risks posed to investors and the financial system. In light of the financial crisis, international interest in the supervision and regulation of the financial industry has increased rapidly, particularly with regard to hedge funds and there is no doubt that international and European initiatives will influence hedge fund operations in European and German law. The aim of this thesis is to introduce the reader from a legal perspective to the general characteristics of hedge funds as well as the existing and expected legal schemes for the operations of hedge funds in European and German law. The thesis explains the characteristics of hedge fund schemes by describing their origin and terms of hedge funds used. In general, the reader will be introduced to the European and German legal landscape as well as to market participants in the hedge funds business by analysing applicable German law as well the practability of existing EU Directives and Regulations. Furthermore a brief summary of the financial supervisory framework will be presented as well as the role of hedge fund associations. The reader will also find a chapter analyzing and describing the proposed Directive for Alternative Investment Fund Managers (AIFM) by following its table of contents resulting in a comparative summary on expected European regulation and possible impacts to German law.

During the course of its professional career 2007 until 2009, in addition to its full time work, the author completed the master programs - Master of Laws (LL.M.) at Frankfurt School of Finance & Management and Master of International Business & Tax Law (LL.M.) at Management Center Innsbruck.

After 2004 the author accepted a position at Citigroup Global Markets Deutschland AG & Co KGaA in Frankfurt as Fiduciary Compliance Officer Germany and was appointed beginning of 2007 as Vice President of Citigroup Inc.
