Suggested Answer: B 🗳️
A hedge fund is closed to all but sophisticated, wealthy investors. Hedge fund managers engage in riskier strategies than mutual fund managers.
They are fairly illiquid; the redemption of shares is restricted. They are actively managed, and management fees are much higher than those charged by other types of funds.
