At dms Management Ltd. (DMS) we are focused on offering a full fund governance service, delivering outstanding results to our clients. Our outstanding reputation and experience are internationally renowned, thanks to our simple philosophy – the right people, doing the right work. DMS’ unique methodology and code of conduct - based on international standards of governance - have allowed us to consistently deliver on our commitments over the last decade.

DMS is committed to serving the modern day hedge fund. We recognize that the corporate governance of offshore hedge funds has evolved significantly with the changing practices and dramatic growth of the industry. A decade ago, independent directors of offshore hedge funds were viewed as inconsequential at best, meddlesome at worst. But markets and circumstances change and industries evolve. Now, offshore boards need to develop trust and build confidence in others by delivering on their commitments and remaining accountable.

Today, corporate governance of offshore hedge funds is much more important and the needs of onshore and offshore investors are strikingly similar. Independent directors of hedge funds are more engaged with investors, creditors, service providers and regulators, taking unprecedented actions to protect the interests of investors and creditors. DMS has emerged as an industry leader on the forefront of these issues, catalyzing positive changes in the industry, reinventing outmoded governance practices and creating the modern-day hedge fund directorship firm.

At DMS we take time to select the right people to join our team, those who have the right skills, experience and attributes to better serve our clients. With 13 principals and more than 50 industry professionals leveraging proprietary market-leading technology, DMS is the most professional firm in fund governance and is internationally recognized as the industry leader.

DMS takes its responsibility as part of the hedge fund community seriously, becoming a founding member of AIMA (Cayman Islands) in 2006 and Hedge Funds Care Cayman  in 2004.  We are committed to helping establish industry-wide standards that benefit the development of the hedge fund industry. 

DMS is owned by its principals and is not affiliated with any administrator or law firm and is licensed and regulated by the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority under the Companies Management Law since 2001.
