AIMA Survey Attempts To Indentify Trends In Asset Pricing

Responding to requests by investors globally, the Alternative Investment Management Association (AIMA) is currently conducting an in-depth study on asset pricing and fund valuation practices.

The Association explains that the project is an attempt to assess the fair value, performance and risks associated with investing in certain strategies, for the investor community. For the industry, it aims to seek clarification on responsibilities, current common practices and realistic expectations by investors.

“As well as providing a meaningful overview of the industry and its practices, it is our aim to demystify the views surrounding this topic,” explained AIMA. “We intend to highlight the differences between hedge funds and their traditional counterparts.”

In order to accurately assess issues in this area, AIMA encourages one person per company (institutional investor, fund of funds manager, hedge fund manager, CPO, CTA, prime broker, FCM, fund administrator) to complete a questionnaire.

The deadline for responses to the survey falls on Wednesday, March 31.
