On June 30, 2019, CFA Institute released a new version of the GIPSŪ standards, a global industry standard for the measurement and presentation of investment performance results. The GIPS standards have been adopted by over 1,700 organizations in over 40 countries.
Please join Ken Robinson from CFA Institute on Thursday, November 14, 2019 at noon to learn more about how the 2020 GIPS standards have been updated to enhance their application to all asset classes, to better address pooled funds, and to consolidate guidance issued since the 2010 version was released.
Given the importance of the GIPS standards to market integrity, many organizations in the investment industry, including asset owners, asset managers, consultants, regulators, law firms, recordkeepers, software providers, consultants, and accounting firms, should be interested in learning about the 2020 GIPS standards.
