The challenge

The financial landscape is undergoing a seismic shift, with data the new currency of investment management. Portfolios are becoming more complex than ever, with asset owners holding a vast array of assets across many different classes. It’s impossible to execute sound investment strategies without a centralised view and a data-driven single source of truth. However, the tools available to investors are failing to keep up.

55% of asset owners are still using spreadsheets for manual data consolidation, wasting as much as a week every month – time that could be better spent optimising the portfolio. And for those who have some level of automated data flows, just loading it is the comparatively easy part. Consolidating, classifying and reporting remains a huge challenge.
