  • Risk Analysis of Hedge Funds Versus Long-Only Portfolios
    Oct-01 Version Risk Analysis of Hedge Funds versus Long-Only Portfolios Duen-Li Kao1 Correspondence: General Motors Asset Management 767 5th Avenue New York, N.Y. 10153 E-Mail: [email protected] Current Draft: October 2001 1 Tony Kao is Managing Director of the Global Fixed Income Group at General Motors Asset Management. The author would like to thank Pengfei Xie and Kam Chang for their insightful research assistance. The author is grateful for many useful discussions with colleagues in the Global Fixed Income Group and constructive comments from Stan Kon, Eric Tang and participants at the “Q” Group Conference in spring 2001. 10/16/01 4:17 PM - 1 - Oct-01 Version Risk Analysis of Hedge Funds versus Long-Only Portfolios Introduction Despite the decade-long bull market in the 1990s and liquidity/credit crises in the late 90s, hedge fund investing has been gaining significant popularity among various types of investors. Total size of reported hedge funds increased four fold during the period 1994 to 20002. The Internet bubble and valuation concerns for global equity markets, especially among sectors such as telecommunications, media and technology, have provided additional catalysts for the soaring interest in hedge funds over the last two years. Institutional investors often use hedge funds as part of absolute return strategies in pursuing capital preservation while seeking high single to low double-digit returns. This strategy is primarily implemented by absolute return investors (e.g., endowments, foundations, high net-worth individuals). Allocations by corporate and public pension plans to hedge funds as a defined asset class is a recent phenomenon.

  • BUS 200 Group Project, Semester 2, 20057 March 2011 Business Organisation and Management
    BUS 200 group project, semester 2, 20057 March 2011 business organisation and management (Photos: Entrance hall UBS headquarters in Basel, Aeschenvorstradt ; Counter hall UBS headquarters in Zurich, Bahnhofstrasse; UBS headquarters in Zurich, Bahnhofstrasse 45; UBS in Zurich, Paradeplatz) a glimpse of UBS Authors: Philipp Bircher 40808459 Meike Brünk 40594432 Valery Crottaz 40638626 Andreas Eiman 40811840 Anssi Ihaniemi 40794067 Executive summary As one of the leading wealth management companies in the world, a premier global invest- ment and asset management bank, UBS’ situation represents a good example of the chal- lenges an organization in the financial sector faces today. Beginning with a short outline of its historical roots, we try to shed light on UBS’ organizational culture. In this context it is cru- cial to understand that the values and norms within a company serve as guiding principles on a firm’s way to success. Thus, we analyse the values the organization promotes and discuss the implications this might have on its business. Many principles that are reflected in UBS’ organizational culture today have their roots in the bank’s constituting parts. Furthermore, the views on leadership and its emphasis on entrepreneurial thinking can only be fully understood if one takes into account the bank’s very diverse background which is a result of its history, its global business operations and its, in terms of culture and age, very heterogeneous work- force. Based on these facts and thoughts, we address the question of UBS’ strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats and summarize the organization’s situation in a SWOT Analysis. In terms of strengths, it turns out that the organization comes up with an efficient human re- source management, which focuses on satisfied employees, who are recognized by UBS as a key factor in the company’s success.

  • Executive Summary - Informational
    Executive Summary - Informational TO: State Investment Board FROM: Dave Hunter DATE: August 16, 2019 SUBJECT: SIB Meeting Materials – August 23, 2019 The August SIB meeting will include a high-level performance update as of June 30, 2019, noting that we pushed our comprehensive annual investment performance review (with Callan) to September 27th due to very tight fiscal year end reporting time constraints. RIO’s CFO Connie Flanagan and Senior Financial Accountant Susan Walcker have been hounding our managers to finalize their June 30, 2019, results and valuations since July 1. Due to Connie’s and Susan’s relentless efforts, we effectively “closed” our books this morning. RIO will now seek to confirm and reconcile all investment valuations, cash flows and returns with our custodian (Northern Trust) and consultant (Callan) over the next week in advance of our auditors (Clifton Larson Allen) coming onsite the last week of August to complete their fiscal year end audit procedures. The August SIB meeting materials will address the following topics: 1. Asset and Performance Overview – Given the above noted time constraints, RIO will distribute this high level asset and performance update on or about August 22nd. 2. Public and Private Equity – Darren Schulz and Eric Chin will provide updates on the comprehensive review of our $6.4 billion public equity and $200 million private equity programs. Board Action will be requested to approve up to a $75 million commitment to Adams Street Partners 2019 Global Fund. RIO notes that Adams Street is our largest private equity manager and their Global Funds for 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018 have performed well and ranked in the 1st or 2nd quartile by Callan as of March 31, 2019.
