The Managed Funds Association has recently put out a new version of their Best Practices Guide. Here is an excerpt from their website on what these are and how to download them:
_______________________________________________________________

The objectives of Sound Practices are to:

* Strengthen business practices of the hedge fund industry through a strong framework of internal policies and practices
* Encourage individualized assessment and application of recommendations
* Enhance market discipline in the global financial marketplace

Sound Practices, which was originally published in 2000 and is now in its fourth edition, provides peer-to-peer recommendations for establishing standards of excellence in virtually every aspect of business. The recommendations included in Sound Practices are divided among the seven topics listed below:

* Management, Trading, and Information Technology Controls
* Responsibilities to Investors
* Determination of Net Asset Value
* Risk Management
* Regulatory Controls
* Trading Relationship Management, Monitoring, and Disclosure
* Business Continuity, Disaster Recovery, and Crisis Management

MFA has revised Sound Practices in cooperation with international organizations that share the PWG and MFA’s goal of providing market participants with a framework for establishing uniform principles and guidance for the global hedge fund industry.
