Asset Owners

Asset Owners

Today, asset owners and institutional investors, in particular, have pressing needs for critical data and reporting for portfolio monitoring, investment screening and asset allocation.  Most institutions are challenged because they go through a time consuming and manual process for producing their monthly or quarterly reports for their investment committee and/or board.  Typically, the data and reporting that is readily available internally from their institution or externally such as from their custodian bank is not adequate for reporting purposes and sound investment management.

Typical Asset Owner’s Challenges

Significant Time and Resources Spent on Board/Investment Committee Reporting

• Aggregating investment data that is scattered in multiple sources
• Manual and spreadsheet-driven processes to do complex reporting

No Aggregate View of the Entire Investment Portfolio including:

• Liquid investments (e.g. equities, fixed income, etc.)
• Illiquid investments (e.g. hedge fund, private equity, real estate, etc.)

Lack Robust Analytics for Meaningful Reporting

• No risk management metrics
• No deep dive performance attribution
• No actionable decision-analysis
• Difficult to do portfolio management and risk monitoring

No Centralized Investment Database

No Dashboard for Portfolio Monitoring
