The Private Fund Industry Five Years after the Dodd-Frank Act – A Survey Study
Wulf A. Kaal · 2016
This study evaluates the long-term implications of the unprecedented yet evolving post Dodd-Frank Act regulatory framework pertaining to the private fund industry. The Author collected and coded data for a population of 1267 registered investment advisers. Respondents (N=69) answered questions in several categories designed to identify cost, compliance, and management issues associated with the post Dodd-Frank Act regulatory framework. The findings in this study suggest that the industry is mostly affected by the uncertainty and higher costs associated with the Act, but under multiple metrics the industry appears to be coping well overall with the evolving post Dodd- Frank Act regulatory landscape. * © 2016 Wulf A.
