Operational Due Diligence 3.0: Responding to a Regulated and Institutional Alternative Asset Industry
As the alternative asset industry has grown and matured, the discipline of operational due diligence (ODD) has become more prominent. Alternative asset investors no longer make decisions based on investment performance alone — allocators are focused equally on the risk of operational failure — be it through honest error, or in the worst case, through dishonesty and fraud. In “Operational Due Diligence 3.0,” the authors introduce a new operating model, in which the foundation of an effective ODD program is now an active, real time monitoring program, where the annual onsite visit and resulting diligence report is just one tool in a far broader toolbox of diligence procedures.

Business Risk: An Often Neglected but Significant Source of Risk
“Never underestimate business risk,” is the lead-up cautionary advice of SwissAnalytic’s latest white paper. In “Business Risk: An Often Neglected but Significant Source of Risk,” the authors reflect on some recent news about an embezzlement case and provide other historical examples, which espouse the importance of examining business risk when researching potential alternative investments. The paper highlights areas of importance such as looking into the financial viability of the firm, staffing and compensation, the compliance function, the firm’s and its employees’ backgrounds, and asset transfer controls…to name a few.

In “The New World of Operational Due Diligence,” Swiss Analytics outlines how you can enhance your operational due diligence approach, and in turn create ‘operational alpha.’

Regulatory Cases: Accident Analysis of Three Regulatory Complaints
Swiss Analystic’s latest white paper, “Regulatory Cases: Accident Analysis of Three Regulatory Complaints,” provides a follow-up to their paper published last fall, Regulatory Cases against Investment Managers: Lessons Learnt for Investors. In their study, three regulatory complaints are reviewed and discussed in detail pointing out circumstances which were instrumental in facilitating the fraud.
Furthermore, the authors illustrate limitations of what can be expected from a regulatory agency, suggesting that an investment advisor’s registration with a regulator is no substitute for proper and pro-active due diligence.

Early Stage Silver Due Diligence — Towards a More Robust Approach to Alternative Funds Selection
Whether a private investor or institutional, a fund distributor or allocator, all individuals charged with the daunting task of fund selection are confronted with a similar problem. We call this "falling in love" with a fund. For the pragmatist, the love story may begin with an upward-sloping line chart. For the romantic, it can be solidified in a marketing pitch spilling sexy Greeks and spattered with an enticing financial glossary. This article takes a closer look at the problem that this phenomenon creates for fund selectors and presents some suggestions on how to reduce the chance of qualitatively weaker funds from becoming approved through this bias while reducing the costs of the selection process.
