Hedge Funds
Hedge Funds are highly sophisticated entities that make investments in a variety of areas. It could be commodities, real estate, distressed debt, corporate paper, mortgage backed securities, derivatives, international currencies and others. Because of the nature of these investments, determining a value under Topic 820 fair value can be a challenge.
