Recent SEC regulations required many managers of the nearly 9,000 hedge funds in the US to register as investment advisors, and set a registration deadline of February 1st, 2006. However, registration is only the beginning for registered investment advisors, who now have a range of new compliance issues to address in their daily operations.<\/p>\n
