Measuring Post-Crisis Performance

“The numbers question really addresses where the industry has been, not where it is now, and where it is going”

Pre-Weavering, the number of directorships was genuinely held as being indicative of director performance – not any more. In an increasingly sophisticated industry post-crisis, stakeholders don’t want to know about mere directorship numbers. They want to go in-depth, and understand exactly how the governance process is working for their fund.

Providing a far more qualitative approach than the DDQ approach that was so popular many years ago, DMS truly saw ahead of the curve, and was ready and waiting for the industry’s approach to governance to change.

“It is well accepted today that the due diligence process cannot be reduced to a single question”
