Smaller hedge funds to thrive under Dodd-Frank bill

Online, September 6, 2010 (Newswire.com) - The Doddâ€Frank Bill signed into law on July 21 promises to improve accountability, transparency and end the "too big to fail" notion. At the same time it allows for smaller hedge funds (under $150 million) to thrive.

Sen. Christopher J. Dodd (Dâ€Conn.), chairman of the Senate Banking Committee, said of the bill he coâ€authored, "No one will know until this is actually in place how it works. But we believe we've done something that has been needed for a long time. It took a crisis to bring us to the point where we could actually get this job done."
