PEI’s description.
Featuring expert advice from over 30 compliance and legal professionals, this guide for chief compliance officers (CCOs) provides practical guidance on the legal and operational issues that registered investment advisers are required to comply with, and what the CCO role entails with useful checklists and practical tips.
The companion also features an exclusive roundtable discussion among a chief compliance officer, a head of investor relations and three attorneys. In this candid and informative session, these compliance experts discuss reporting net as well as gross performance results, limitation on general or public solicitations of investors, fundraising in new markets, limited partner due diligence and social media policy – it’s a discussion that will reveal the realities of the brave new world for registered investment advisers.
