Hedging interest and FX hedging: The consequences of having US investors *

USA - April 17 2012
Non-US real estate funds engaging in hedging of interest rate or foreign exchange risks (whether by exchange traded or over-the-counter derivatives) and which also have US investors or US sponsors, even though such funds are domiciled and operated outside the US, may still find themselves and their operators subject to the jurisdiction of the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission as a consequence of the US Dodd-Frank Act.
