My understanding was that there is a tax advantage (or loophole) in this construct of having influence over a fund's trading rather than doing the trades yourself and holding the fund instead. Would you argue there is no such advantage?
- codecritic 7y agoYes there is an advantage. US investors could be assessed at long-term rather than short-term capital gain rate by using such type of structures. I simply argue that this is not a core part of a quant fund's business. Any capable hedge fund could hire lawyers to set up such structures.
