This authoritative study of the investment management business focuses on the use of capital requirements for investment managers as a means of investor protection. Commissioned by the Investment Management Regulatory Organization and drawing on extensive discussions with investment managers, it provides a comprehensive account of how the investment management business is organized and identifies its inherent risks. The authors examine the cause and incidence of market failures as well as the dangers to investors through mismanagement and malpractice, and provide an extensive treatment of fraud, with a full listing of British fraud cases since the early 1970s. The report concludes with a summary of the risks faced by investors and recommendations for appropriate forms of protection; and, on the basis of existing regulatory structures in the United Kingdom and the United States, proposes an alternative structure in accordance with the authors' analysis.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This unique and authoritative study of the investment management business focuses on the use of capital requirements for investment managers as a means of investor protection. Commissioned by the Investment Management Regulatory Organization and drawing on extensive discussions with investment managers themselves, it provides an account of this burgeoning sector that is both comprehensive in its coverage and penetrating in its analysis. The authors review the wayin which the investment management business is organized and its inherent risks; they examine the causes and incidence of market failures as well as the dangers to investors through mismanagement andmalpractice. The book includes an extensive treatment of fraud, with a full listing of fraud cases in the UK since the early 1970s.The report concludes with a summary of the evidence on the nature and scale of the risks faced by investors and recommendations for appropriate forms of protection; and, on the basis of existing regulatory structures in the UK and USA, sets out a proposed structure in accordance with the thrust of the authors' analysis.While specific in its coverage, much of the argument presented here is closely applicable to other financial sectors in which regulation is a crucial issue; and it is especially pertinent to currentdebates on financial regulation in the run-up to the completion of the European internal market in 1992. Commissioned by the Investment Management Regulatory Organization, this study of the investment management business focuses on the use of capital requirements for investment managers as a means of investor protection.
