EXCERPT- Does it apply to HedgeFirst?:

"DB Hedge Strategies Fund charges a 2.2 percent annual fee.
If their funds produce a 10 percent gross return, they'd first deduct a 1 percent management fee and then 20 percent of the profits, leaving 7.2 percent, from which DB Hedge Strategies would then deduct its 2.2 percent, leaving you with 5 percent, or half the gross return."
