The GIPS Compliance Mastery Program

Do you know that over 1800+ organizations in 48+ markets claim compliance with the Global Investment Performance Standards (GIPS)? 

Compliance with the GIPS standards is no longer a 'nice-to-have' title to flash around, but is now a must-have minimum passport to get a seat at the 'serious manager' table in an increasingly global investment management industry.

But how do you navigate through the thousands of pages of GIPS materials especially if you are like most professionals - juggling multiple competing tasks?

Developed over a decade of iterations and incorporating lessons learnt and client feedback, this 2-part online GIPS Compliance Mastery Program (GIPS Compliance Principles Mastery Program and GIPS Implementer Principles Mastery Program) uses our 9-step proprietary case-based framework to help you to quickly master the key principles of the GIPS standards in a step-by-step, well-paced approach that also easily fits into a busy schedule, so you will be ready to implement the GIPS standards with clarity and ease.

This program doesn't just walk you through the rules of the Standards (you can read them yourself) but uses an implementation focused, case-based approach that  helps you master the principles of the GIPS Standards by equipping you to apply it to the different use cases.

Implementers

For investment managers and asset owners considering compliance, completing the 2-part program (GIPS Principles Mastery Program & GIPS Diagnostics & Planning Mastery Program)  is ideal for you to master both the key principles, conduct a self-diagnostics for your firm and create the implementation plan to begin implementing the Standards and claim compliance.

Industry Professionals

For investment industry regulators and other industry professionals seeking a mastery of the principles of the GIPS standards, the first part of the program (GIPS Principles Mastery Program) is ideal for you to both master the principles as well as obtain a hands-on demonstration of the principles as they will be applied by investment managers and asset owners.
