Content:
A detailed look at an important hedge fund strategy. Written by a fund manager who invests solely in merger arbitrage, also referred to as risk arbitrage, and other event-driven strategies, Merger Arbitrage is the definitive book on how this alternative hedge fund strategy works. Initial chapters are dedicated to the ins and outs of the strategy-cash mergers versus stock for stock mergers, legal aspects of mergers, and pitfalls of the merger process-while later chapters focus on giving the reader sound advice for integrating merger arbitrage into an investment portfolio. Merger Arbitrage helps.
