Reuters shows how former regulators are moving to hedge funds

Reuters was first to write about the growing trend of prominent hedge funds like Paulson & Co and Millennium Management hiring former regulators to help them navigate a changing regulatory landscape. The June 30 story showed how these moves are raising eyebrows on Wall Street and Capitol Hill, where critics say hedge fund managers are trying to find ways to influence or lean on regulators. The story was picked up by the New York Times Dealbook and discussed in the Columbia Journalism Review’s Audit Notes. It was also widely picked up by industry web sites including Albourne Village and currency site XE.com.
