Special Briefing on Hedge Fund Advertising Issues

Pillsbury invites you to a special program featuring Phillip Goldstein of Bulldog Investors and Benjamin Allensworth of the Managed Funds Association. Please join us as Goldstein and Allensworth discuss the following issues:

  • Will Goldstein sue or will the SEC agree to take no action if he revives his Bulldog Investors website?
  • What is meant by allowing hedge funds to publicly advertise? What are the various options?
  • What are the benefits of permitting hedge funds to provide more information to the public?
  • How might the business change if hedge fund advertising is permitted? 

Additional topics in this program include an update on Phil Goldstein's application for an exemption from filing Form 13F (on Fifth Amendment grounds).

Pillsbury's Terry Davis will also report on:

  • Form ADV proposals
  • Experience with Rule 206(4)-8
  • Best practices related to valuing hard to value portfolio securities
