Country Sponsors

 

The presence of a local sponsoring organization for investment performance standards, known as a “country sponsor,” is essential for effective implementation of the Standards and ongoing operation within a country. Country sponsors:

 

  • Locally promote the GIPS standards
  • Provide local market support and input for the GIPS standards
  • Represent country-specific concerns to the GIPS Executive Committee

 

Each organization undergoes a formal review before being endorsed as a country sponsor. View details on the local country/regional sponsors below.
