(TSG), the leading GIPS and non-GIPS verification firm, and Norwood Consulting, a top provider of GIPS technological consulting and developer of CompositeBuilder, announced today that they have co-developed a GIPS reporting extract to simplify the GIPS verification process for GIPS compliant firms.
The CFA Institute Global Investment Performance Standards (GIPS) are globally accepted standards considered industry best practice for investment performance reporting and presentation. The GIPS standards have been implemented by thousands of organizations throughout the world. TSG is one of the world’s leading experts in the GIPS standards.

The new verification extracts make the verification process quicker and more efficient for the GIPS compliant firm by giving the verifier precisely what they need,” said John Norwood, President of Norwood Consulting. “The one-click process enables the user to generate the extracts at the push of a button. It couldn’t be any simpler.”
