Greater confidence can be achieved when performed by an independent, third party that fully understands the niche discipline of performance. Firms that follow GIPS® benefit from the following:
Phocion Founder, Ioannis Segounis, stated: "Investment firms that claim adherence to GIPS® standards must be verified on an annual basis.
