Hedge
Fund Manager Compensation
Hedge Fund
managers are typically paid using the '2 and 20' formula for compensation.
This is the arrangement where the manager receives an annual fee of 2%
of the fund's assets along with 20% of the fund's profit for the year.
While the 2 and 20 percentages may vary between funds, the payment structure
of management fee plus a percentage of the fund's profit is almost always
used. In 2005 the total number of existing hedge funds was over 9,000
and the funds collectively managed over $1 trillion in assets.
