Apex Fund Services has launched the world’s first ever Middle Office fund administration service that gives hedge funds a real-time portfolio management system.
Apex has licensed Nirvana Solutions Software as a Service platform to provide hedge fund managers of all sizes with bespoke, real-time risk and profit & loss information services. At the touch of a screen Nirvana will provide a fully hosted and managed interface for hedge fund managers, whilst Apex, via its global network, will provide a suite of reconciliation and administration services in real-time.
In addition to ensuring managers fulfil their compliance and regulatory requirements in a more transparent way, Apex’s MOOR service allows hedge fund managers to mitigate portfolio risk, counterparty risk and operational risk within one solution.
Importantly, the real-time Middle Office Service will reduce operational costs significantly whilst also increasing transparency and enabling greater risk management. The service is free to existing investment manager clients as it can be seamlessly integrated into existing Apex services.
