Morgan Hedge has, in coordination with legal counsel, incorporated measures that are intended to comply with these rules and avoid a public offering by a hedge fund or investment program that lists with us. These include: password protection of all detailed fund information, representation by investors that they are accredited or qualified through questionnaire and that they observe the 30-day waiting period.

The implemented measures make Morgan Hedge compliant with the SEC's 'Lamp Technologies' no-action letter. The 'Lamp' no-action letter, as it is commonly referred to, was a ruling by the SEC which set out all of the elements which a website must contain in order to preserve certain securities exemptions so that the website does not trigger a 'public offering' of securities.

 

 

Yes, see answer above.

 

 

No, all fund names are abbreviated for unregistered users. To obtain more information about the specific fund or investment program every user needs to be registered. In Newspapers and in other Media, such as Newswires and -services, names of unregulated investment vehicles and selected returns are frequently reported as part of a news story. It could be argued that this would also violate Regulation D, which is not the case.

However, if a fund or investment program prefers not to be shown, we will exclude any requested fund from being published in these lists. Other data that can be accessed by registered users is not affected by this exclusion.
