Embankment wish to change the level of services available to fund managers running alternative funds today. Our own experience in the market, is that administrative tasks is an ever-compounding burden on fund managers, that adds little to no value. The services that need to be undertaken, either inhouse or outsourced, are primarily a hygiene factor. However, not having scalable solutions to the tasks can both diminish investor satisfaction, and be an inhibiter for growth going forward. We want to ensure that fund managers have the maximum flexibility to focus on the core deliverables and value-creating actions in the fund, while having ease of mind that the administrative side is taken care of and delivered at an efficient cost. We will deliver these services through a central technology platform, within which we will integrate best of breeds solutions, to ensure that you get the service output required in the smoothest and most efficient way possible.
