Abstract: Abstract Funds of Funds (FoF) are financial instruments that have been traded on the American market since the 1980s. In the 1990s they experienced significant growth in the United States, but only at the beginning of the new millennium did they become an actively traded financial instrument in Europe (Davidson, 2003).
