The Dodd-Frank Act in the US and AIFMD in the EU increased registration, disclosure, and capital requirements for hedge funds.

The Essentias of Venture Capital
The emerging industry of Greek start-ups has gained remarkable ground, but also a lot of government recognition and kind of support during the last years: “A strong culture of innovation and entrepreneurship drives the public and private sectors to join forces through Elevate Greece and reach out into global markets, promoting Greece as a major innovation hub in Southeast Europe” (Source: https://elevategreece.gov.gr). But start-ups need, amongst others, to get supported with alternative funding methods: at the early stages of development, raising debt capital is extremely difficult for young companies, especially those with business models that aren’t fully proven, or firms that haven’t reached their break-even.
This is where Venture Capital (VC) plays a huge role by making risky investments in start-ups and young companies in return for equity ownership. The role is not limited to the capital contribution, VC also provides mentorship, industry connections, and a support network that enables the expansion of young business models. Therefore VC is not only beneficial to entrepreneurs, but it also has a positive impact on economic and business development.
This document summarizes the essentials of VC principles, activities, and methods and is based on VC guidelines published by international associations.

While there is no such thing as a “standard” fee, there are a number of general terms that apply to hedge fund fees.

Volcker Rules
The Volcker Rule restricts proprietary trading by U.S. banks in an effort to prevent conflicts of interest and excessive risk-taking. It prohibits banks from engaging in short-term trading of securities, derivatives, and commodities for their own profit and limits ownership of hedge funds and private equity funds to 3%. While intended to curb speculative behavior, critics argue it may raise costs for banks and trading volumes. Banks were given 7 years to comply with new reporting and compliance requirements under the Volcker Rule.

It outlines why pension funds require different regulation than other savings instruments due to risks like old age poverty.

The document also compares the regulatory approaches of Latin American versus Anglo-American pension systems.Mergers & Acquisitions: What VC Investors Should Know

Lifting the Corporate Veil. Power Point Presentation
"Lifting the Corporate Veil" is a legal concept that refers to the judicial act of disregarding the separate legal personality of a corporation or limited liability company (LLC). Normally, a corporation is considered a legal entity separate from its shareholders or members, meaning that the personal assets of shareholders or members are protected from the liabilities of the corporation. However, there are certain situations where courts may decide to "pierce" or "lift" the corporate veil, holding shareholders or members personally liable for the debts or actions of the corporation.
Here are some common scenarios in which courts might lift the corporate veil:
Fraud or Illegality: If shareholders or members use the corporate structure to perpetrate fraud, evade legal obligations, or engage in illegal activities, courts may disregard the corporate entity and hold those individuals personally liable.
Undercapitalization: If a corporation is formed with insufficient capital to conduct its intended business and meet its foreseeable liabilities, and this lack of capitalization results in harm to creditors or other parties, courts may lift the corporate veil to hold shareholders or members liable.
Failure to Observe Corporate Formalities: Corporations and LLCs are required to observe certain formalities, such as holding regular meetings, maintaining separate financial records, and avoiding commingling of personal and corporate assets. If these formalities are not observed and the corporate structure is used as a mere façade, courts may disregard the corporate entity.
Alter Ego: If there is such a unity of interest and ownership between the corporation and its shareholders or members that the separate personalities of the corporation and the individuals no longer exist, courts may treat the corporation as the alter ego of its owners and hold them personally liable.
Group Enterprises: In some cases, where multiple corporations are closely related or form part of a single economic unit, courts may pierce the corporate veil to achieve equity, particularly if one corporation's actions harm creditors or other stakeholders and the corporate structure is being used to shield culpable parties from liability.
