摘要：Hedge fonds are always provoking various questions that arise from the fact that hedge fonds can do business with less assets than banks but still have larger influence on the markets. Skilful and explicit use of off-balance-sheet instruments gives them much larger influence on the market that their assets can suggest. Change of positions on the market that causes changes in prices is the main characteristic for this kind of fonds and this causes debates about all kinds of speculations and various analysis of the financial market.
