ALPHA DOESN’T HAPPEN BY CHANCE
New asset classes and fund structures bring big opportunities. But they also introduce complexity: more moving parts, vastly different workflows, and different structures within each asset class.
And that requires a measure of business transformation.
Can your technology platforms support the intricacies of accounting for and reporting on a diverse asset mix?
Ours can. Geneva® is a comprehensive portfolio management, accounting, and reporting platform that supports any investment within any structure for any region in the world. It manages complexity using a customisable, scalable, flexible solution, making operations as seamless and simple as possible.
This doesn’t happen by chance. Everything is by design.
Investment advantage doesn’t happen by chance
Our clients are in the business of generating returns for investors – not processing interest payments and paydowns, doing reconciliations, or any of the other complex workflows, accounting and operational tasks demanded by alternatives.
These firms increasingly rely on Geneva® to do that work, so they can focus on their core competencies and achieve real investment advantage.
Supports multiple asset classes and instruments, and multi-currency portfolios, across the full range of alternative fund types
Eliminates the need for multiple systems and processes to manage different types of loans
Accounts for and reports on each entity accurately and allocates profit and loss down to the investor level
Delivers the standardised reporting necessary for your books and records, client and regulatory transparency and tax reporting
Monitors and manages the underlying positions within derivatives instruments
Opens up the opportunity to move into private market assets such as private equity, private credit, real estate, real assets and more – mix the public and the private with ease
Understands alternative global fund structures; streamlines and automates the processes involved in managing them
Accounts accurately for all investments, capital and cash activity
Monitors and manages complex waterfall calculations, expense allocations, hurdles, tiered incentive and management fees, liquidity terms and more
Provides automated rebalancing to reduce the risk of errors, drive efficiencies, and improve client servicing
Unified data doesn’t happen by chance (and nor does data governance)
Anyone seeking to expand asset classes will need to access and integrate the relevant data sources to support those assets; also provide accurate, consolidated reporting for both investors and internal requirements. Firm-wide data consistency and governance is key; as is maintaining a single, golden source of data, which is much harder when data is spread across multiple systems.
Geneva® brings it all together.
Scale doesn’t happen by chance
Geneva® is made for operational scalability, seamlessly supporting new lines of business and removing operational barriers.
Expand into non-traditional assets without stressing the system or driving up operating costs
Reduce manual processing, improve efficiency and reduce risk significantly
Grow your business faster by eliminating the need for separate systems and spreadsheet workarounds
Handle higher volumes and more detailed reporting associated with expanding business lines
Delivering on client needs doesn’t happen by chance
