Abstract: Through the years, the number of global hedge fund managers has increased overall. However, the ratio of hedge fund starts ups to closings continues to generate concerns over basic issues related to back office operations, transparency, capacity, and style drift. In this study, I present the findings of a size versus performance study of the hedge fund industry to determine the extent to which operational issues affect the industry’s growth and the resulting impact on investors.
