The Spaulding Group
Announcing Free Fundamentals of GIPS Workshops

The Global Investment Performance Standards (GIPS(R)) have become an important part of the investment performance area, but there is still a great amount of confusion and misinterpretation of the Standards. The course has been designed to educate individuals that work with the Standards, as well as to address some of the problem areas we see with many firms.


We have decided to offer this course for FREE, but there are a few catches:

 
Spotlight

The course is free only to investment firms (i.e., money managers and plan sponsors)
 
Spotlight

Each class is limited to only 20 participants, to make it more intimate: easier to share ideas, and discuss issues and concerns


Spotlight

Only one participant per firm may attend. (If a firm wants to send more than one, then a modest fee of $500 will be applied)
