MF Global, the NY based hedge fund offering from the Man Group has agreed to pay $75 million to settle charges that the fund helped to hide the $180 million Philadelphia Alternative Asset Management (PAAM) hedge fund fraud (in which founder Paul Eustace was recently charged). The CTFC shut down PAAM in 2005 for hiding its own losses from investors.
