The Showtime series “Billions” stars Damian Lewis as Robert “Bobby” Axelrod, a hedge fund titan based in New York City. The popularity of the show introduced millions of viewers to the complexities of working in capital management. Regardless of how you developed your interest in hedge funds, there’s far more going on behind the closed doors of a firm than you can imagine.
