Post from Lou D'Agostino, President and Financial Services Practice Leader
2017 will mark 20 years since I put on a NYJ uniform and 2001 was the last time I wore FB pads. Over 16 years have gone by with little to no engagement with any of my prior sports teams including the #NYJ. While it didn't take much, my two older sons are mainly responsible for pulling me back to the game in a coaching capacity as well as revitalizing my passion for fitness and athletic training. But I must say, nothing has been more exciting than the outreach and engagement from the @nfllegendscommunity. A new NFL initiative designed to bring legends (former players) back to the game and provide a slew of resources and a platform to reconnect with other legends and players in the region. Today's luncheon at the NFL HQs was just another example of their outreach. Whether you played one year or 10, there was a camaraderie established and relationships built that can never be erased. I am so grateful that I am getting to know some of these guys on a personal level and to be part of this tremendous initiative. Keep up the great work @nfllegendscommunity.

The management and professional liability insurance marketplace for both existing fund managers and emerging managers has softened significantly over the past 12 months. Both pricing and coverage terms are the most competitive they've been in over a decade with insureds experiencing rate decreases coupled with broadened coverage.

Launching a hedge fund is no easy task. From drafting the formational documents to regulatory filings to selection of key and critical vendors, there is no shortage of things to do prior to launch. Add to that list evaluating the respective insurance needs of a start-up fund. Start-up firms must entertain insurance products which may be either required (either by state law, regulation or by contract) or lines of insurance coverage which are elective and may be meant for more established firms. The process of not only reviewing what each policy may or may not cover but also taking into consideration the cost effectiveness and feasibility in the early stages of the business can be daunting.
In order to make this process a bit smoother and add some value in the early phases of a launch, we have created an Insurance Needs for Hedge Funds Guide which can assist you in your efforts of addressing insurance needs in the start-up phase.
