Trading For Expats
by
Philip Morton
For
the expat, whose somewhat unusual
situation allows for a greater flexibility
of investment choice and possible
advantages in terms of taxation, the
choice of broker is becoming broader,
as onshore brokerages recognise the
potential of the expanding 'globetrotting'
mass affluent market, and offshore
brokers recognise the need to provide
their clients with up-to-the-minute
facilities.

| Hedge
Funds - If You Aren't George Soros
by
Caroline Maxwell
In this
special feature, we look at hedge
funds from the perspective of the
individual investor who has some free
cash to invest but is not in the mega-rich
category. Hedge funds often make better
returns than plain vanilla mutual
funds, but are perceived as being
more risky. Also the regulators make
it difficult to invest in them. We
look at whether these popular perceptions
are true, and show you how you can
approach hedge fund investment in
a way that minimises the undoubted
risks.
