A first-class, global forum where the important delineation over the roles and rationales for Hedge Fund vs. Private Equity vs Other alternative investments is, and continues to be, invaluable. This is even more so in light of the recent wave of encroachments from Private Equity-type firms into the Hedge Fund space, and vice versa. GAIM is a truly worthwhile venture.
