Hedge funds typically cater to investors who meet specific minimum income or asset requirements. These investors often include high-net-worth individuals, individual investors, and pension funds.

As per the SEC document, hedge funds are not subject to certain investor protection regulations. For instance, hedge fund managers are not obligated to file public reports or register with the SEC. However, the applicability of these regulations depends on the size of the assets managed by the hedge fund.
