The Problem

Why Existing Approaches Fall Short

Manual processes, fragmented tools, and legacy systems create compounding inefficiencies that limit speed, accuracy, and risk visibility.

Legacy Fund Accounting Systems Cannot Handle Modern Complexity

Traditional fund accounting platforms were built for plain-vanilla mutual funds. AIF structures, complex derivatives, co-investment vehicles, and side pockets demand capabilities legacy systems lack.

Spreadsheet-Dependent Operations Create Operational Risk

Many fund operations teams rely heavily on Excel for NAV calculations, accrual computations, and expense allocations — creating key-man risk, version control issues, and audit complications.

Reconciliation Consumes Disproportionate Team Resources

Fund accountants spend 40–60% of their time reconciling trade data, custody records, and bank statements rather than on value-adding accounting and reporting work.

Reporting Timelines Under Regulatory Pressure

SEBI, AMFI, and investor reporting deadlines are tightening. T+1 NAV reporting requirements demand automation — manual processes cannot deliver at the required speed and accuracy.

Legacy Fund Accounting Limitations

Spreadsheet-based NAV calculations with manual formula chains

Multiple reconciliation steps between custodian, RTA, and books

Limited support for complex AIF and derivative structures

T+1 reporting impossible with manual processes

No real-time portfolio valuation during market hours

Audit trail fragmented across spreadsheets and emails
