Who are the top Earners among the Hedge Fund Managers? Hedge fund managers earn money, as a percentage of the profits made for the investors in their managed portfolios. Their incomes come from two sources. The annual management fee charged to investors in addition to the profits they made for the year. Fund managers earn no income from profit side if they realized no gains for their managed portfolios. Hence there is pressure on the managers to perform. The average hedge fund management fee generally falls within one and two percent, some managers may charge slightly higher than two percent. On the performance fee side, most hedge fund managers may charge anywhere between fifteen and twenty-five percent of their total realized profits. According to the latest income figures compiled by Traders Monthly, for April, 2007 the top managers by income includes: - John Arnold {33 } of the Centaurus Energy fund of Houston with an estimated income of $1.5-2 billion.
