VALUATION POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
4 PINES deep portfolio valuation and regulatory consulting experience provides a constantly refreshed view on fund valuation policy best practices that readies our clients for SEC exams and operational due diligence valuation policy reviews.
Regulatory agencies, investors, and independent audit firms have called for alternative investment managers to adopt robust valuation policy and procedures (VPP) related to illiquid investments. Our staff have worked for all of these constituents and know what best-in-class really means.
In addition, VPP documentation that specifically reflects the latest fair value guidance in the context of a fund’s investment strategy and investment types has become a must-have for general partners seeking to raise funds from institutional limited partners.

We work with funds to develop “best in class” VPP documentation
VPP Development and Remediation
We perform a VPP Diagnostic Assessment and then work alongside management either to develop a customized VPP document or to remediate material gaps in existing VPP documentation. SEC exam readiness as well as valuation audit support are both goals that are satisfied with a constantly refreshed process.
