Q1. Which of the following statements regarding Global Investment Performance Standards (GIPS) is most accurate?

A)   GIPS requires that all fee-paying discretionary portfolios be included in composites defined according to investment objective or similar strategy and firms must show GIPS compliant history for a minimum of five years or since inception if a composite has existed less than five years.

B)   GIPS exists as a best or maximum worldwide standard where local or country specific law for investment performance measurement does not exist.

C)   GIPS is intended to foster the notion of a world-wide regulatory body to oversee investment performance and measurement on a global scale.

Correct answer is A)

GIPS provides a minimum, not a maximum, standard for investment performance measurement and/or presentation. GIPS requires that all fee-paying discretionary portfolios be included in a composite, not rank ordered, to prevent firms from presenting the results of their best portfolios. GIPS is intended to foster the notion of self-regulation, not a world-wide regulatory body, to oversee investment performance and measurement.

Q2. Which of the following is NOT an objective of the Global Investment Performance Standards (GIPS)?

A)   To foster the notion of industry self-regulation on a global basis.

B)   To obtain worldwide recognition by securities regulators of a standard for the calculation and presentation of investment performance in a fair, comparable format that provides full disclosure.

C)   To promote fair, global competition among investment firms for all markets without creating barriers to entry for new firms.

Correct answer is B)

GIPS applies to investment management firms and is intended to serve the existing and prospective clients of investment management firms, not regulators.
