HedgeOp Launches Compliance Blog for Investment Advisers

NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - October 20, 2009) - HedgeOp Compliance, a provider of compliance software and consulting services for asset managers, today announced the launch of Compliance Avenue, a blog dedicated to providing insightful commentary, news, best practices and information about all things related to Investment Adviser compliance.

The blog represents the latest tool powered by HedgeOp that helps advisers navigate the increasingly complex regulatory landscape. Compliance Avenue will feature contributions from some of the leading voices in compliance, in areas such as academia, law, consulting, and HedgeOp's team of experts, who are dedicated solely toward providing compliance and operational support to the investment advisory community.

"All along we have strived to provide advisers with the most comprehensive tools available to fulfill growing regulatory demands," said Bill Mulligan, CEO HedgeOp Compliance. "By creating a community for compliance professionals to comment on and share ideas about best practices, we believe that Compliance Avenue furthers that objective. This is particularly important as more than ever our work is impacted by developments that are occurring in real-time due to proposed changes to the Investment Advisers Act and potential registration of hedge funds.

"Compliance Avenue represents a forum by which the leading experts in the field can comment on news and policymaking and potentially have a profound impact on how compliance and investment professionals do business."

Compliance Avenue will seek to be the most comprehensive and authoritative online discussion of all topics related to investment adviser compliance. The blog will seek to create an informative user experience for its visitors through up-to-date commentary and analysis of the latest news and developments via posts by leading compliance experts.

The blog is located at http://complianceavenue.com/.
