Investment managers are facing various challenges in the current environment. Clients and stakeholders increasingly demand transparent presentation of investment returns and risks and assurance of the investment management process. Compliance with the Global Investment Performance Standards (GIPS®) has become a requirement of institutional investors selecting investment managers, and is also gaining increasing acceptance in private banking and alternative investments. Regulators are paying increasing attention to investment risk management and benchmarks used in financial products.
Our aim is to give managers, investors and regulators the confidence that investment risks and returns are managed, measured and reported effectively and transparently. We help build trust in the investment management process.
