Tell us about hedge fund industry ethics, maybe win an iPod shuffle
By Chris ClairThe hedge fund industry is being given greater regulatory scrutiny and a host of new compliance requirements. Against this backdrop, HedgeWorld, Labaton Sucharow and the Hedge Fund Association are together conducting a survey of ethics in hedge funds. We need your help.
In particular if you are a hedge fund executive or portfolio manager, but also if you work in risk management, compliance, marketing, administration – any hedge fund job, really – we ask that you take just a few minutes and complete this totally confidential online questionnaire. The answers you give us will give us the first real look at how those in the hedge fund industry view themselves, their coworkers and their firms from an ethical standpoint.
As a thank you for your time, you will be entered in a random drawing to win one of 25 iPod shuffles.
Here is the survey link:

Thank you for helping, and thank you for your time. If you have any questions, please e-mail me at chris.clair@thomsonreuters.com.

This survey blocks any user not working for a hedge fund manager. What about all the other industry participants including service providers that have opinions on industry ethics? Why aren’t we permitted to take the survey?
Thanks in advance for responding.

Holly, it looks like they’re targeting people in hedge fund firms only, not so much service providers.
