Hedge fund brooks no difficulties from industry regulator

"I wasn't put off setting up a hedge fund despite the bear market," says Jonathan Brooke, managing director of Brooke Capital. Brooke, along with vice president Emerald Kwai, decided to set up a hedge fund company in Hong Kong in April last year, and was registered with the SFC in October. Brooke had previously spent two years working for an absolute return fund in Hong Kong, leaving in January 2002.
