Emerging Markets Alternatives (EMA-pronounced Ê-MA) endeavors to democratize independent investment audit (a.k.a. due diligence) of alternative strategies in emerging markets for LPs and GPs, alike. EMA is analogous to a rating/appraisal agency that could be retained for its audit services by either sophisticated investors (Limited Partners- LPs) or investment managers (General Partners-GPs). As the "LPs' Watchdog", EMA offers:GPs (practicing alternative strategies in emerging markets, with a compelling value proposition, espousing transparency): • independent investment audit (akin to a rating/appraisal agency) of their investment offerings • objective knowledge transfer from GPs to LPs from LPs' perspective enabling informed decision-makingLPs:• an independent source beyond their immediate network to identify pre-qualified niche alternative opportunities in emerging markets meriting further due diligence• a reliable and expert resource enabling knowledge transfer from GPs to LPs for informed decision-making• substantial fee savings resulting from "peer-sharing" of due diligence costs.The complexity surrounding alternative strategies in developing markets amidst a shortage of adequate specialized LP resources (internal and external) proves challenging for many investment managers to explain their value proposition, transparently and comprehensively and for many LPs to diligence, adequately and holistically. EMA's audit conducted in accordance with CFA Institute Standards of Professional Conduct, aims to allow advanced dialogues between GPs and LPs leading to informed and quicker decisions. EMA's audit does not provide any investment recommendation nor it is an offer to buy or sell an investment. EMA is not a placement agent.
