This troubles me. Is there a comparable financial history of CI anywhere?

CI publishes unaudited financial reports on their website. I scrape the data into excel...it's not very reassuring; the cash on the balance sheets doesn't match the cash flows from the cash flow statements. That said, their accounting and finance team is very open and candid (you can call them). I think they are perfectly well-intentioned, though they ought to make it a priority to get a real auditor.

Alcor is another story entirely. The financials statements tick and tie, but their investment process is one of the more alarming and loony I have ever encountered (as a partner at an investment firm, I can say this with a high degree of understanding). I ultimately decided not to contract with Alcor for this reason. If you're an Alcor member, do yourself the favor of learning about their shady investment strategy.
