  • Overaccumulation of Productive Capital Or of Finance Capital? a View from the Outskirts of a Marxist Debate*
    Overaccumulation of productive capital or of finance capital? A view from the outskirts of a Marxist debate* Rune Skarstein** Abstract: The starting point of this paper is a discussion of an apparently neglected aspect of Marx’s theory of surplus value and profit suggesting that finance capital can temporarily be decoupled from the productive sector in its hunting for profits. Then follows a discussion of the basis in the real economy for profit seeking and accumulation of finance capital in the last three decades, viz. the dominance of shareholder value, low wage policy combined with mortgage (re-)financing particularly in the US, the turn to fully funded pensions, and the rising foreign deficits and debt of the US. The paper next discusses new means of financial profit seeking, viz. credit derivatives, hedge funds, private equity funds and the increasing use of leverage within the financial sector. In the final section, it is argued that the present crisis is essentially a crisis of overaccumulation of finance capital which has turned into a general economic crisis characterised by increasingly deficient demand. The paper concludes that what is at stake is not only regulations, but the entire accumulation model of ‘financialised’ capitalism. Introduction The prevailing Marxist explanations of the present economic crisis face a double dilemma. First, the crisis started in a period when the rate of profits in the corporate sector of the United States (us), according to current measures, tended to rise in the period from 1982 to 2007 (with a small dip in 1997–2002), after falling from the mid-1960s until the early 1980s (cf.

  • Family Offices and Alternative Investments
    WHITEPAPER Family Offices and Alternative Investments By Paul A. Ehrhardt Managing Member Investment Business Advisors, LLC Washington DC October 2013 All Rights Reserved Family Office Association / WhitepAper Family Offices and Alternative Investments 2 Abstract In the midst of a prolonged low interest rate environment, many mid and large sized Family Offices are going beyond the traditional 60- 40 equity/fixed income asset allocation framework for their investment portfolios. In search of higher expected returns through portfolio diversification and lower volatility, and seeking to tap true alpha uncorrelated to traditional equity and fixed income markets, many Family Offices are making initial allocations or increased allocations to “alternative investments” including hedge funds, funds of hedge funds, private equity, real estate and commodities funds. How can Family Offices effectively and prudently pursue this trend? What are the specific lessons to be learned by Family Offices from the 2008-09 financial crisis regarding alternative investments? What additional lessons need to learned from the Madoff Ponzi scheme and other recent alternative investment frauds and failures? And what lessons can be learned from institutional investors (such as university endowments) whose portfolios have included significant allocations (>50%) to alternatives for many years? This White Paper posits that, as Family Offices pursue “alternative investments”, it is critical to their success that they undertake broader, deeper and more robust initial and

    2016-2017 PRIVATE FUND INVESTOR DUE DILIGENCE 257 PRIVATE FUND INVESTOR DUE DILIGENCE: EVIDENCE FROM 1995 TO 2015 WULF A. KAAL* Abstract The importance of private fund investor due diligence in the investment allocation process, capital formation, and private fund litigation has reached unprecedented levels and is increasing further. To provide the industry with data, data trend analyses, and guidance on applicable legal standards, the author examines two datasets: (1) private investment fund advisers’ SEC Form ADV II filings from 2007 to 2014 (N=100392), and (2) the publicly available litigation record pertaining to private fund investor due diligence from 1995 to 2015 (N=572). After highlighting important changes in the quality and quantity of private fund investor due diligence in SEC Form ADV Part II, the author evaluates the corresponding litigation record and analyzes expert guidance on applicable best practices. * Associate Professor, University of Saint Thomas School of Law (Minneapolis). The author would like to thank the many practitioners who contributed to this article. Special thanks go to Tom Joyce, Steve Adams, and Bentley Anderson as well as anonymous representatives of the private investment fund industry and its lobby groups.
