The hedge fund also provides additional compensation and must be disclosed according to Standard IV (B) Additional Compensation Arrangements. Finally, according to Standard IV (A) Loyalty, members must act for the benefit of their employer, not deprive their employer of the advantage of their skills and abilities, or otherwise cause harm to their employer.
