Allocators to private funds are exposed to a variety of operational risks including regulatory and compliance risks, counterparty risks, systems and technology risks, portfolio valuation risks, cybersecurity risks, BCP and continuity planning risks.  The list of risks is very long and is the primary focus of the people that undertake operational due diligence reviews of funds and fund managers.  Perhaps the most critical risks are associated with cash controls and the prevention of theft and malfeasance. Both have occurred repeatedly throughout the industry, and are very highly correlated with a manager having poor cash controls. One of the ways to identify potential issues is to evaluate the managers' cash controls during the due diligence process. IMDDA Advisory Board Member John Ward was put together an interesting and timely white paper on operational due diligence and the evaluation of Cash Controls.
