Udi Grofman Quoted in Article on the Coronavirus and Hedge Fund Diligence
March 20, 2020
Corporate partner Udi Grofman was extensively quoted in a recent article on FundFire, “Hedge Fund Diligence Questions Skyrocket During Coronavirus.” The article discusses the increase in due diligence questions that investors and hedge funds are asking about business practices in the hedge fund industry. According to the article, the coronavirus crisis has raised questions about continuity plans, liquidity terms, fundraising plans and keeping track of remote work. Additionally, Udi says that investors “want to understand the deployment of assets between various prime brokerages and custodians and that the fund has enough cash and other liquid assets.” Udi also advises that “as residents in major metropolitan areas hunker down to shelter in place, it will be important for managers to document how they work during this period.
