Minimum Investment Required For Hedge Funds

What is the minimum investment required to invest in hedge funds? Well, the minimum investment varies from one fund to the other and is determined by the General Partner.

In case of hedge funds, the general partner overlooks the day to day functioning of the fund and is responsible for the investment activities of the fund.

Most new hedge funds have a minimum investment of $250,000 or $500,000. In case of established funds, the investment is usually higher. This could even be $10,000,000. Also, the general has the authority to negotiate and reduce the minimum investment if he feels the need.
