Associates - Control of Associates who are Managers
Mikeand Kate, I have another example/question for you that is attempting to get atwhether you always look to the UPE of any manager in the chain from the managingentity up to the ultimate manager (I think the answer is yes?), as well asother entities the UPE controls or whose investment decisions it manages. Ibelieve so based on what I have read, but just wanted to make sure.
Ihave provided an example to get at this issue, if it is helpful.
Thanksagain for your help. (redacted)
