Hedge Fund Japan - Attracting Japanese Capital

In order to have any HFJ Capital Mall listing appeal to Japanese investors, basic needs must first be addressed. There are several basic questions that serious Japanese or Japanese theme investors will ask when choosing an international hedge fund opportunity. They include the following variety of important considerations.

A.	What is the yield performance? What is the strategy, single or multiple? Who is the manager? What is the manager's track record? How many years of related fund management experience does the manager have? Does the manager have personal capital of US$1M or more in the fund?

B.	What kind of auditing or accounting service is used to track performance of the fund? In this post Amaranth world, this one concern has gained the most profile. How long has auditing been done or has it been done at all? What tax & legal status is the fund run under? Are there any registered organizations that review the fund or manager?

C.	Is the fund hedged at all, fully or only partially? Are derivatives used for hedging only? Is there a high gearing of any or all capital? What are the tolerance levels of the high/low watermarks of the fund's performance over time?

D.	What is the entry/exit point flexibility of the fund? What hurdle rates or performance/management fee details are clear and which are hidden? How often and under what circumstances will any of these change or be reviewed?

E.	How quickly will the strategy change to adjust to new markets? Is this change constant or in keeping with any regular patterns. Does the risk return appetite change via a clear set process or based on the manager's views?
