TITLE:  Money Management with Performance FeesSPEAKER:  Daniel MitchellABSTRACT:Hedge fund contracts are generally characterized by a flat fee, a performance fee and what are know as high-water-mark provisions. This paper describes and characterizes these contract features and analyzes how they influence the hedge fund's risk choices. We model the hedge fund's portfolio choice as a stochastic control problem with hybrid discrete and continuous controls. We develop a computational method to solve this class of problems and prove its convergence.
