Hedge Fund Investment Consultants, Hedge Fund Databases, and Hedge Fund Directories
If you don't have the time or resources to provide timely performance updates to the growing number of hedge fund databases, pension fund consultants and other interested parties, we can help. Our team will register your firm and funds with the appropriate databases and directories and keep them updated for you.
Introducing HedgeQuest - our database registration and performance updating service especially designed for single strategy hedge funds, funds of funds and other alternative strategies. The service begins with a thorough review of your firm and product information by one of our hedge strategy professionals, who then recommends appropriate databases and consultants based upon your marketing goals. Once this list is approved, an A.S.A.P. data specialist registers your firm and products in each database and then updates performance, assets under management, and any other necessary information on a monthly basis. HedgeQuest clients access a customized website with a secure and private data library, enabling them to view the current status of their registrations and updates, as well as copies of their profiles from each data source.

Do you know which investment consultants are currently collecting hedge fund information? Wilshire, Rogerscasey, Cambridge and several others now collect alternative asset strategies in their proprietary databases. If you're not sure where to begin with a consultant calling campaign, we can help.
Here is what we'll need to get your fund registered:
  • A copy of the Prospectus/Offering Document of the Fund
  • Firm history and fund manager profile
  • A copy of the Subscription Documents and Wiring Instructions
  • The historical monthly net performance (management and performance fees) for the fund since inception
  • The historical month end net assets in the fund (fund size) since inception
  • A copy the fund's most recent Audited Financial Statements
  • Any marketing document on the fund (Presentations)
And here is what we'll need to keep your information updated each month:
  • Updated monthly NAV and pricing information as soon as it is available (ideally by the 10th business day of the month)
  • Any changes to operational information (e.g., phone number, minimum investment, length of lockup, high water mark) within a month of the change
Using the Internet to Market a Hedge Fund
Improper use of the Internet can expose a hedge fund and its manager to enforcement action by the SEC and jeopardize their ability to rely on the safe harbor of Regulation D or Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933. A fundamental requirement of Regulation D and Regulation S is that there be no general solicitation or advertisement used in connection with the solicitation of an investment in a hedge fund. Hedge fund managers may not provide offering materials on a Web site, unless the offering materials are only provided to prospective investors who have a pre-existing substantive relationship with the manager.

Hedge fund managers establishing Web sites are advised to keep nominal information on the home page of a Web site, indicating the name of the hedge fund and requesting the viewer to provide their name and password to access additional information on any interior page. Contact information, past performance, investment strategy, experience of management and all other material specific to the hedge fund should not be contained on the home page or any page that is accessible by the public. Hedge fund managers should not link any of the interior pages of their Web site to other Web sites.

A manager may supply information about the hedge fund on a third party's Web site if the following procedures are followed:
  • The site is password protected;
  • The home page of the site makes no reference to a specific hedge fund;
  • The interior pages of the site are only available to prospective investors that complete a questionnaire establishing that they are "accredited investors;" and Prospective investors are required to wait 30 days following their qualification to access the site before investing in any of the posted funds (other than funds in which such
  • prospective investor already has invested, has already been solicited or is already considering as an investment opportunity).
A hedge fund manager which posts information on a third party's Web site will not be deemed to be "holding itself out" to the public as an investment adviser if the posted information solely relates to a hedge fund and does not provide any information regarding other services or products offered by the manager.
