Basic Due Diligence Report

Organizational, operational, legal and strategy related desk-research due diligence

When you select a CTA you must look for any sort of an edge. And we are convinced that an edge always comes from people, because it‘s the people behind the CTA, who ...

… conduct the research,
… decide what the systems will be,
… select and prepare the input data they will use,
… define the investment universe and
… setup the processes for the execution and risk management.

That’s why you must learn to know the people who are the CTA.- And you learn to know people best by meeting them in person, talking to them, discussing their approaches and ideas.

But due diligence is not just talking it’s much more the collection of information and it is lots of information: presentations, factsheets, legal documents, reference letters, information of our own research, questionnaires and so on. You must organize this information. You must analyze it … and doing this over time. And you must present it….

To receive an impression of how we present the information of the due diligence we do at Alternative Investment Partner you can download a sample report with this link.

The Due Diligence Report is a document of approx 30 pages. More then 100 risk factors are evaluated and you get yellow and red flags as hints for possible risk. Part of the report is a comprehensive quantitative analysis including the state of the art risk measurements, regressions and the analysis of extreme scenarios.

You can buy a single CTA Due Diligence Report or we can discuss an arrangement for several reports within a given time.
