What is GIPS?

According to gipsstandards.org, GIPS® standards ensure fair representation and full disclosure of investment performance. These principles may lead firms and asset owners to avoid misrepresentations of performance and to communicate all relevant information that prospective clients and investors and oversight bodies should know in order to evaluate past results.  

The objectives of the GIPS® standards are as follows:

  • Promote investor interests and instill investor confidence. Ensure accurate and consistent data.  
  • Obtain worldwide acceptance of a single standard for calculating and presenting performance.  
  • Promote fair, global competition among investment firms.  
  • Promote industry self-regulation on a global basis. 

How does GIPS® impact investors? 

GIPS® provides confidence in the integrity of presentations from your investment firm and the ability to compare performance across compliant firms.
