Fund management is becoming an increasingly challenging task. From the Chief Financial Officer on down, the pains of many fund managers have a common theme. Using QuickBooks and then using Excel to do the required quarterly consolidations. This can take from 10’s to 100’s of hours and is an error prone process. The use of multiple dashboard systems, having to deal with different period ends as well as multi-currency scenarios all add up to a very time consuming task that is fraught with danger when done manually. This is the reality of today’s world. The graphic below is a stark illustration of the pressures managers face.
Fund managers of today have an immediate need to quickly produce or have access to accurate consolidated financial and management reports.

They need full Multi-Entity and Multi-Currency support.
