**A Form 1099 is used to report interest and dividend income (among other items) and generally is a tax information document for only one owner, one person. A Schedule K-1 is a federal tax document used to report the income, losses, and dividends for a business’ or financial entity’s partners or an S corporation’s shareholders. A Schedule K-1 document is prepared for each relevant individual (partner, shareholder, or beneficiary). A partnership then files Form 1065, the partnership tax return that contains the activity on each partner’s K-1. 

The HFRI Fund of Funds Composite Index is an uninvestable, equal-weighted index that includes over 650 constituent hedge fund of funds. These funds invest across a broad range of strategies. The index provides insights into the performance of fund of funds managers, but it cannot be directly invested in.
