Alternative Investment Vehicles have become increasingly common and highly controversial elements of today?s financial markets. They have faced calls for stricter regulation in recent years since they remain less regulated than traditional financial institutions and are rarely required to publish financial information. This article re-views the main characteristics and effects of Alternative Investment Vehicles as a basis to drive suitable regula-tory measures.
