- Title
Hedge funds and financial stability.
- Abstract
In this speech, Sir John Gieve, Deputy Governor responsible for financial stability, discusses how the rapid growth of hedge funds forms part of a wider transformation in financial markets. He notes that in the long run this should help widen the range of options for investors and promote stability, although in the short run there are risks while the funds, other market participants and the authorities gain experience of new products and markets. He concludes that the FSA and other authorities, including the Bank, are alive to the dangers and are doing what they can to assess and mitigate the risks.
