Cane Island Completes Performance Exam, Branding Initiative

Cane Island Alternative Advisors, LLC, has completed its first performance examination (audit) of investment results from January 1, 2013 through December 31, 2016.  Results were independently examined by Alpha Performance Verification Services. 

"Our performance has been very good, perhaps exceptional, and to have some external credibility associated with our work was very important to us," said investment manager and founder, Timothy Peterson.

Michael Hultzapple, of Alpha Performance Verification Services, said "We're pleased to work with Cane Island Alternative Advisors and Mr. Peterson on this best practice initiative."   Alpha Performance Verification Services specializes in providing investment performance verification services. 

Cane Island also completed its branding initiative, which includes development of a logo, revised website, and instagram page.  "The stylized 'CI' represents Cane Island and simultaneously incorporates a shooting star in keeping with the Company's slogans "Move Forward" and "Achieve Something Great."

PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT FOR ALTERNATIVE INVESTMENTS PUBLISHES!

http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20150603005732/en/Research-Markets-2015-Performance-Measurement-Alternative-Investments#.VW_o00bFicw

Despite enormous growth in alternative investment, performance measurement practices in this area are rough around the edges. Performance analysts tasked with measuring and reporting the returns of alternative assets face issues regarding which return method to use, leverage that creates negative denominators in the return calculation, a host of valuation concerns, and challenges associated with benchmarking these unique strategies.

Performance Measurement for Alternative Investments is the first of its kind to explain how to overcome these major hurdles, and seeks to help unite two worlds that heretofore have been kept fairly well apart: that of the performance analyst seeking to communicate results to stakeholders, and that of the portfolio manager responsible for investment decision making.
