Performance presentation standards: Relying on the flexibility of its proprietary portfolio management information system (Integra), Alphafixe has always offered clients the possibility to customize their investment mandates. As claiming GIPS compliance would have required that each of these mandates be included in one of the firm composites, we would have had to maintain many composites. This is why we are not claiming GIPS compliance. As such, although we do not claim GIPS compliance nor produce GIPS-compliant performance reports, performance is calculated according to GIPS’ highest standards and methodology.
