EVIV Group - Streamlines GIPS Compliance for Investment Firms

How EVIV Group Streamlines GIPS Compliance for Investment Firms in the USA, Canada, and Beyond

Challenges Faced by Investment Firms in Achieving GIPS Compliance:

Understanding GIPS Standards:
Investment firms often face difficulty in fully understanding the GIPS standards required for compliance. The complexities of these standards can make it challenging to align internal processes with investment performance reporting standards and ensure that GIPS-compliant reporting is in place before proceeding to GIPS verification.
Lack of Clear GIPS Policies and Procedures:
Many firms struggle with outdated or insufficient GIPS policies and procedures, which makes it difficult to meet the strict guidelines necessary for GIPS compliance. Without clear policies, firms risk inefficient and inconsistent reporting.
Inconsistent Investment Performance Measurement:
Firms often encounter challenges in ensuring accurate investment performance measurement and performance attribution GIPS. These inconsistencies can compromise the integrity of their GIPS-compliant reporting and create issues during the GIPS verification process.
Regulatory Challenges:
For firms in the USA, meeting the SEC Marketing Rule in addition to GIPS compliance can be a challenge. Many firms struggle to navigate both regulatory frameworks simultaneously, complicating the compliance process.
