topics in the performance measurement industry as well as a preview and
implications of the proposed changes to the GIPS standards.
A GIPS Standards Interactive Workshop precedes the annual conference and is scheduled for 24 September 2008 in Boston. The workshop will help participants master the requirements of the GIPS standards, including composite construction, performance calculation, and the creation of a compliant presentation.
