Do Alternative Asset “Fair Value” Measurements Differ in Asia Compared to the Rest of the World and Why Do LPs Care?

Global regulators and institutional investors are increasing their scrutiny of periodic (quarterly/monthly) fair value measurements of underlying investments reported by alternative asset fund managers. Updated guidance from the The International Private Equity and Venture Capital Valuation (IPEV) and the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) has reinforced the requirements of IFRS 13 and Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) ASC Topic 820 with respect to estimating fair value. Some investors and regulators have questioned whether fair value practices in Asia are consistent with fair value practices in other geographies.
