Gate 04 Data Layer & SQL Views
Gate 05 Automated Client Outputs
Gate 01: Pre-Load Validation

Trade & Position Ingestion

Comprehensive transaction and holdings ingestion checks designed to identify file delivery anomalies, duplicate trades, and feed gaps before daily calculation cycles commence.

By enforcing strict boundary controls at the source, downstream analytics engines are shielded from calculation errors and log corruptions.

  • File Delivery Audits: Automated morning arrival verification across custodian, broker, and execution feeds.
  • Pre-Load Integrity Rules: Prevents downstream risk engine crashes and ensures clean transaction logs.
  • Source Data Gap Mitigation: Proactively alerts operations teams to missing trades before market open.
Gate 02: Return & Run Controls

Performance & Risk Verification

Rigorous verification of portfolio returns, multi-asset factor models, and attribution mechanics across all mandate tiers and composite groupings.

Ensures that portfolio returns, currency hedges, and benchmark excess returns reconcile accurately across daily, monthly, and inception periods.

  • Attribution Reconciliation: Daily verification of Brinson models, allocation, and selection effects.
  • Currency & Cash Drag Controls: Proper accounting of derivative overlays, currency hedge impacts, and cash balances.
  • Production Sign-Off Signatures: Daily validation stamps ensuring calculations meet strict audit compliance.
Gate 03: Enrichment & Analytics Audit

Reference Data & Derived Analytics

Deep audit of qualitative master reference attributes combined with high-precision calculation verification for complex fixed income, derivative, and private asset analytics.

Guarantees that security master classifications and factor loadings are fully verified before publishing to reporting databases.

  • Master Reference Audits: Qualitative verification of asset classifications, GICS sectors, and ratings.
  • Derived Fixed Income Metrics: Precise calculation checks for yield to maturity, effective duration, and convexity.
  • Custom Blended Benchmarks: Automated rebalancing and index constitution audits for active mandates.
Gate 04: SQL Schema Specifications

Data Layer & SQL Views

Translates complex financial formulas and multi-asset models into structured database view specifications for database and cloud engineers.

Reduces database query complexity, prevents duplicated business logic, and guarantees sub-second access speeds for BI tools and client reporting.

  • Logical View Definitions: Financial schema specifications optimized for Snowflake, SQL Server, and Postgres.
  • Analytics Formula Translation: Direct conversion of mathematical risk algorithms into clean database views.
  • Query Performance Tuning: Eliminates runtime bottlenecks and reduces cloud compute costs.
Gate 05: Report Layout Audits

Automated Client Outputs

Automated verification and end-to-end reconciliation of published client factsheets, marketing pitch decks, institutional reporting packs, and regulatory filings.

Provides complete peace of mind by reconciling rendered report values directly back to the audited source database.

  • Component Mapping Verification: Ensures all tables, charts, and figures align precisely with underlying data.
  • PDF vs Database Reconciliation: Automated checks matching output PDFs against signed database records.
  • Marketing Deck Reliability: Eliminates manual re-keying errors and reduces sales team turnaround times.

Strategic Operating Framework

Our services are structured into a Corporate Core Service driving sales and distribution, and an optional Boutique PM Add-On Service for active front office support.

Centrally Funded Core

Corporate Core Service

Distribution & Client Reporting Support

  • Performance & Attribution Reconciliation: Direct verification of returns data, position alignments, and portfolio reporting classifications and groupings.
  • Security Reference Data & Derived Analytics: Verification of qualitative security reference data and asset classifications, paired with quantitative derived analytics (such as yield, duration, and convexity) immediately following performance and risk verification checks.
  • Distribution & Regulatory Reporting Support: Structured management from report component data generation to final report generation and client distribution, catering to specialized ad-hoc queries and reporting requests from sales and marketing teams.
Affiliate Funded Add-On

Optional Front Office Support Service

Performance, Attribution, Exposure & Ex-Ante Risk

  • Investment Process Analytics: Active performance, attribution, exposure, and ex-ante risk reporting and dashboarding for Portfolio Managers to analyze and support their investment process.
  • Attribution & Overlay Advisory: Explaining complex Brinson attribution models, derivative overlays, and currency hedge drags directly to Portfolio Managers.
  • Front-Office Staged Modeling: Pre-trade staged modeling, stress analysis, and yield curve shifts optimized for active trading.

Our Service Delivery Framework

Managing daily production, custom development, and front-office queries through three robust operational pillars.

01

Daily Production Runs

We execute and monitor daily data loads, audit qualitative security reference data and quantitative derived analytics, perform custom compliance validations, and sign off on daily performance and risk metrics under strict morning SLA targets.

02

Systems Development

We build report templates, calibrate multi-asset risk factor engines, construct automated layouts, specifications for database views, and coordinate onboarding for complex new assets (e.g., Private Credit).

03

Front Office & Sales Support

We answer platform queries, generate validated graphs and tables for marketing decks, verify metrics consistency across sales teams, and resolve portfolio manager attribution questions immediately.

Operational Synergies & Team Partnership

Leveraging consolidated infrastructure design to drive developer efficiency and eliminate key-person dependencies.

The Database Partnership Advantage

Technical database and cloud platform engineers excel at infrastructure management, server scaling, and replication, but typically lack the deep financial analytics logic required to map performance and risk inside databases.

We act as the translation layer—converting complex financial formulas into SQL schema specifications. This guides technical developers to build optimized cloud views and accelerate migration timelines.

Platform Synergy Benefits

  • Consolidated Cloud Schema: Designing a single views layer that saves database engineers massive coding hours.
  • Unified Analytics Pipelines: Shared data sets ensure complete consistency across performance and risk outputs.
  • Cross-Team Analyst Redundancy: Operations analysts are cross-trained across modules to eliminate key-person risks.

Simplified Operations Governance

Operating a consolidated middle-office platform under a single expert support loop generates critical organizational efficiencies.

01

Consolidated SLA Scorecard

One unified dashboard to track and govern daily reporting health, data accuracy, and response speeds monthly.

02

Single Point of Escalation

Access senior experts immediately to bypass software vendor ticketing queues and resolve live data anomalies directly.

03

Streamlined Group Oversight

A single reviews loop and consolidated report for the Chief Operating Officer and executive team, reducing oversight fatigue.
