Hedge funds software & CRM

Hedge fund managers constantly think about how to stay one step ahead of their competitors. Using best-in-class software and other sophisticated technology can help fund managers achieve long-term success. When hedge fund staff are looking for a new CRM and investment management solution, it’s important to consider how well each option handles a number of tasks, including managing proprietary data, accessing detailed firm and individual relationship insights, and maintaining an organized database of exposure and performance information.

 

DealCloud is more than just a CRM. This all-inclusive software — purpose-built for hedge funds — excels in relationship intelligence. DealCloud users gain detailed relationship insights that visualize complex data sets, helping firms and their staff better leverage strong connections in their individual and collective networks. These insights are crucial for being the first to market, especially for those hedge funds with complex, differentiated needs.

 

When contemplating an individual investment — or an overall investment strategy — hedge fund professionals rely on their complex networks of subject matter experts. DealCloud makes it easy for hedge fund managers to access and leverage these networks by organizing, normalizing, and centralizing insights and data. By accessing this information in one central location, hedge fund managers can spend less time searching across disparate data sets and more time in data analysis and decision-making.

 

Equipped with custom transaction workflow capabilities, due diligence checklist management, and team collaboration functionalities, DealCloud’s purpose-built hedge fund software offers a state-of-the-art deal and relationship management system to dealmakers and fund managers.

From strategy to execution

In order to stay relevant in a highly competitive market, hedge funds need to track emerging trends and maintain visibility into developments within key, rapidly developing industries. Because DealCloud is built with the unique needs of hedge funds in mind, the software helps fund managers seamlessly communicate with investors, deal sources, service providers, subject matter experts, and other deal participants.

 

Given the complicated nature of expert network workflows, DealCloud lets users track their interactions and the value of the information provided via the Executive Network and other dashboards. DealCloud’s easy-to-use and flexible dashboard-building capabilities increase efficiency and drive value for limited partners (LPs). By leveraging these dashboards and insights, hedge fund managers find market-leading advantages and competitive insights with greater ease.

 

Hedge fund managers can capitalize on the DealCloud platform for their end-to-end deal processes:

 

  • Relationship intelligence
  • Sponsor coverage
  • Idea management for acquisitions
  • Deal and pipeline management

Hedge fund CRM features and solutions

Using DealCloud’s purpose-built software, hedge fund managers can more easily source opportunities to raise capital and manage relationships with new and existing LPs. The DealCloud platform makes it possible for firms to maintain the firm’s entire investor relations program from one centralized platform. The ability to investigate proprietary insights and institutional relationships helps DealCloud users easily analyze deal information with real-time insights. Hedge fund managers have access to DealCloud’s relationship intelligence dashboards and reports that show detailed relationship scores, calculated based on data across all communications (inbound and outbound emails, phone calls, and meetings) between your firm and its network, letting hedge funds source and execute on deals more effectively. 

 

In order to keep dealmakers in the loop, DealCloud users can elect to receive notifications and automated reports with predictive insights via email, web, and mobile. Users can schedule and distribute notifications to certain groups at desired cadences, enabling weekly pipeline reports and other relevant information to appear in the inboxes and in the hands of key personnel. These reports can also be triggered by key activities within the platform, such as the creation of a new deal or logged note, enabling real-time action to be taken.
