The author looks back over ten years of the UK asset and liability management profession and compares the US and UK banking industries. He suggests that the value of ALM techniques is still undervalued and left to specialists rather than being embraced by the banking business.

The growth in popularity of hedge funds has led UK regulators to put forward ways of protecting investors. Here the authors, from a noted law firm in the City of London, set out the ways in which hedge funds can be set up and how they work. They then examine the prospects for regulation and suggest how these should be taken into account by those running hedge funds.

The authors look at the way in which Enron used hedging techniques before the corporate collapse of the organization triggered a crisis of confidence in US business practices and standards. They provide an analysis of how the system was structured and show how the transactions worked before analysing the roots of the company’s downfall.
