Creating Greater Transparency and Gaining a Competitive Edge: New Guidance on Applying the GIPS Standards to Hedge Funds and Alternative Investment Strategies

The GIPS Executive Committee has created the Guidance Statement on Alternative Investment Strategies and Structures and issued an exposure draft (PDF) for public comment that details how firms managing alternative strategies and portfolio structures can apply the GIPS standards.

Please join us on Thursday, 28 April 2011, when Jonathan Boersma, CFA, executive director of the Global Investment Performance Standards, and Beth J. Kaiser, CFA, CIPM, director of investment performance standards at CFA Institute, will take your questions and cover such critical issues as estimated versus final values, the treatment of side pockets, the treatment of fees and expenses, and master-feeder structures.
