Praise for
Hedge Fund of Funds Investing: An Investor’s Guide
by Joseph G. Nicholas
“Hedge funds of funds are at the leading edge of the broad move into
hedge investing by the mainstream of private wealth management. As Joe
Nicholas clearly describes in this definitive primer, hedge funds of funds
are the primary vehicles being used today at top wealth management firms
because of inherent advantages—including superior diversification, econo-
mies of scale within the fragmented hedge industry, access to closed funds,
and professional supervision for manager selection and risk management.
Joe has created a valuable tool to help all of us in using these impor-
tant yet complex investment vehicles .”

and transforms them into the most accessible and readable form.
Read it and reap.”

“A creative and disciplined work that offers powerful insights into the fast-
growing world of fund of funds investing and strategies. A quick and
informative read for both the high-net-worth and institutional investor.”

President and CEO, Ivy Asset Management Corporation
Hedge Fund of Funds Investing provides a thorough, well-articulated
discussion of the key characteristics and issues associated with investing in
a fund of hedge funds. I believe the frank disclosure of both the advantages
and disadvantages of these vehicles, as well as the information on selecting
a fund of funds, will make this book required reading for individual and
institutional investors alike .”

“This is a great reference for those who are just beginning to invest in
hedge funds, as well as for those who already have a hedge fund of funds
allocation. If you are new to this investment vehicle, the book provides
a thorough description of funds of funds and a great framework for
conducting the due diligence process. If you are already invested in
funds of funds, it will prompt you to ask some probing questions at the
next meeting with your fund of funds manager.”
— Cindy Koury
Senior Managing Director, Victory Capital Management
“Hedge fund expert Joe Nicholas dissects the industry’s hottest trend,
investing in funds of hedge funds, in his new book. It’s a must-read for
institutional and private investors alike .”

“Joe Nicholas has created an authoritative and innovative handbook of
fund of funds investing that is essential for both financial and non-
financial decision makers. Building upon his previous writing, he has
successfully applied his practical hands-on experience to demystify the
hedge fund industry using common sense explanations that do not depend
on obscure jargon or understanding.”
— Sara Albrecht, CFA
Executive Committee and Trustee, Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago
“There has been tremendous growth in the fund of hedge fund business,
with assets doubling in the last year. Joe clearly explains the reasons for
this growth as he examines the hedge fund industry and assesses funds of
hedge funds as the most effective way to gain exposure to the hedge fund
arena. The book is a terrific resource for those considering an invest-
ment in hedge funds and/or a fund of hedge funds.”
— Patricia Young
Managing Director and CIO, NewMarket Capital Partners, LLC
“While hedge funds of funds have proliferated as a relatively new invest-
ment vehicle, reliable information about these vehicles has been limited.
Joe Nicholas’s timely book does a magnificent job of providing
concise, valuable information about these popular new funds .”
