Question: Richard, you have done a great job branding yourself online, I appreciate all of the advice contained within your articles. I am curious what you do besides run http://HedgeFundBlogger.com, do you consult full time?

Answer: Greg, thanks for the note. My background is in capital raising for hedge fund managers but in 2008 I quit that position to focus full time on run this website, work with hedge funds on their prime brokerage and capital raising needs in more of a consulting role and help launch and grow the CHA Designation. Most of my day-to-day work with hedge funds now consists of evaluating prime brokerage options, multi-prime brokerage models, capital raising methods and capital introduction opportunities.
The websites that I run or help run include:
