Take an active management approach with liquid alternatives to
increase R.O.I.

Take advantage of inefficiencies in the market by investing in
alternative assets. Hedge fund and private equity investment
diversifies your portfolio and helps shield you from market
volatility, allowing your more passive assets to work the long
game. In Tactical Portfolios: Strategies and Tactics for
Investing in Hedge Funds and Liquid Alternatives, author Bailey
McCann guides you through the principles of hedge fund investment
and the associated philosophies of risk management strategies.
McCann's background in reporting and analyzing government policy
and regulatory issues positions her as a valuable source of
strategic investment advice. As Senior Editor of Opalesque's
Alternative Market Briefing, her take on the market is read
by every one of the top 100 hedge fund managers on a daily basis.
In Tactical Portfolios: Strategies and Tactics for Investing in
Hedge Funds and Liquid Alternatives, McCann goes in-depth on
important topics.

* Strategies for equities, managed futures and fixed income

* What to expect and common misconceptions

* Investment mechanics of specific strategies

* Valuation, red flags, and regulatory changes

If your passive approach has failed to produce the desired
results, liquid alternative investment may be the answer. While
long/short will always be around, external forces can change its
impact on your portfolio and it may be time to expand your
investment arsenal. Tactical Portfolios: Strategies and Tactics
for Investing in Hedge Funds and Liquid Alternatives will help
you get the most out of any market.
