Simply defined, a hedge fund is an actively managed, pooled investment vehicle that is open to only a limited group of sophisticated/accredited investors. Performance of a hedge fund is measured in absolute return units, as opposed to mutual funds where the performance is measured relative to an industry benchmark such as NIFTY or Sensex. Hedge funds are considered generally better at protecting downsides in market downturns, due to the hedging strategies they employ.
