Institutional Investor (August 12)
“Institutional investors have long called for better transparency and disclosure regarding fees, expenses, pass-through costs, and conflicts of interest,” but the SEC’s private fund adviser rules “were struck down in June after being challenged in court by a number of industry organizations largely representing managers.” The “regulatory saga” seemed to pit “investors and managers against one another…. But this picture is too simple, ignoring the industry’s own track record of collaboration to improve practices and address many of these challenges.” Going forward, “stakeholders must pick up where regulators left off.”
