Description
Summary:"The key to successful investment management is to select investment professionals who can best meet clients' investment goals, objectives, and needs." "How to Select Investment Managers & Evaluate Performance provides those who are responsible for the investment performance of their institution's funds - including pension plans and trustees, endowment fund board members, and investment committee board members - with the essential knowledge and skill set required to properly select investment managers and to evaluate their performance in a systematic manner." "This book describes cutting-edge techniques used to evaluate the performance of investment funds and their managers and provides valuable insight into the roles and responsibilities - in light of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 - of those charged with this oversight. In a clear and understandable fashion, the authors offer key advice on such topics as establishing investment policy statements, alternative investments, investment approaches and styles, return-risk measurements, how overall portfolio performance is evaluated, how to conduct a search for investment managers, and much more."--Jacket
