The Spaulding Group (TSG) is pleased to announce that software vendor John Norwood Consulting’s CompositeBuilder has been successfully certified for GIPS® (Global Investment Performance Standards) functionality.
“Software certification is a proprietary, independent, in-depth, and rigorous review of performance/risk systems, conducted by recognized industry specialists” said Christopher Spaulding, TSG’s Executive Vice President of Strategy and Business Development. “The certification covers calculations, functionality, reports, user interfaces, usability, work flow, completeness, and controls. To be ‘TSG Software Certified,’ systems must meet all requirements. Firms may elect to have their entire suite reviewed, or just one or more individual components. This service is available to software vendors and firms with proprietary systems, such as custodians, broker/dealers, and asset managers. Certification provides our clients with greater confidence in what they’re doing, as well as with recommendations on ways to enhance their systems. We have been doing this for clients for to two decades.”
“We were interested in having an independent and authoritative review of our system, in order to gain greater credibility” said John Norwood. “TSG’s software certification program met our requirements. We believe having CompositeBuilder certified will enhance our marketing and sales processes, provide greater confidence to our clients and prospects, and enhance the product’s competitiveness.”
