FundReporting CRUSHES Financial Chaos: 70% Faster Reporting, Flawless NAV & Bulletproof Audits with Bespoke Platform

Before engaging with us, the client managed fund reporting, NAV calculations, and investor records through a fragmented setup combining Excel models, manual reconciliations, and ad-hoc reporting tools.

‍

This approach worked at a small scale but became increasingly fragile as:

• The number of investors grew
  
  
• Multiple share classes were introduced
  
  
• Reporting frequency increased
  
  
• Audit and investor transparency expectations rose
  
  

The lack of a unified system created operational risk, inefficiencies, and limited scalability.

Several core issues were preventing the client from scaling efficiently:

Conversion & workflow issues

• Reporting cycles were slow and highly manual
  
  
• Heavy reliance on spreadsheets increased error risk
  
  

UX / design limitations

• No central interface for operators or stakeholders
  
  
• Data spread across multiple files and versions
  
  

Brand & positioning gaps

• Reporting outputs did not reflect an institutional-grade platform
  
  
• Limited confidence for external investors and partners
  
  

Technical & strategic blockers

• No single source of truth for NAV, investor positions, or periods
  
  
• Difficult to introduce new share classes or fund structures
  
  

Lack of extensibility for future products

Methodology

We adopted a modular, fund-centric architecture, designing the platform around:

• Funds
  
  
• Share classes
  
  
• Investors
  
  
• Transactions
  
  
• Reporting periods
  
  

Each component was built as a discrete, auditable layer, ensuring flexibility and long-term scalability.

Strategic Rationale

Rather than customising off-the-shelf reporting software, we built a bespoke platform to:

• Reflect real-world fund mechanics
  
  
• Support complex share-class logic (HWM, fee structures, periods)
  
  
• Integrate cleanly with future systems (admin, custodians, data sources)
  
  

This ensured full control over logic, transparency, and evolution.

The platform evolved iteratively throughout the engagement:

• Phase 1: Core data model, NAV engine, investor ledger
  
  
• Phase 2: UX refinement, reporting views, anomaly tracking
  
  
• Phase 3 (in progress): Automation, exports, audit-ready outputs
  
  

Each iteration incorporated stakeholder feedback and real operational use cases.
