Profit vs Risk Analysis  [143 months]

Although risk management has been a well-ploughed field in financial modeling for several decades, traditional risk management tools such as mean-variance analysis  do not capture all of the risk exposures of hedge-fund investments.

One of them is  the percentage of  managers' own money (proprietary funds)  invested in the financial pool.
