THE SPAULDING GROUP RELEASES THE RESULTS OF ITS THIRD SURVEY ON PERFORMANCE ATTRIBUTION


Somerset, NJ - June 21, 2007. The Spaulding Group, Inc. (TSG) released the detailed results of their 2007 performance attribution survey. The survey addressed all aspects of attribution, including approaches, preferences, and systems. Five firms cosponsored this research effort: Eagle Investment Systems, Ortec, Wilshire Analytics, Thomson and SS&C Technologies.

"We delved a little deeper with this version of the survey and were pleased with the participation we received," said TSG's president, David Spaulding. "Since this is the third time we are addressing this issue, we are able to clearly see some trends."

The survey reflects the responses from 110 participants and breaks them down geographically and also compares them to the previous two surveys (2002 and 2004). Survey luncheons were held in London and New York on June 12th and June 22nd respectively to report on the results.

TSG has surveyed the industry on a regular basis since 1993. Last year, TSG focused on performance technology, with a survey to the users, followed by one to the vendors; both are highlighted in the current supplement to The Journal of Performance Measurement®.
