Hedge Funds

A broad category of privately pooled investment vehicles.

The term "Hedge Funds" refers to a financial industry category rather than a single specific company. A hedge fund is a company that manages investment portfolios with the goal of generating high returns, while a hedge fund company is an organization that manages one or more of these funds.

These entities employ fund managers to make investment decisions, execute trades, and manage portfolio risk. Compared to registered investment companies like mutual funds and ETFs, hedge funds generally pursue more flexible investment strategies, which may increase the risk of investment losses.
