What is FE fundinfo's Fund Information Hub?

Learn how FE fundinfo’s Fund Information Hub supports the asset management industry by streamlining fund data management and fund distribution.

18 octubre 2023

Fund Managers face numerous challenges on a daily basis, with managing ever-increasing growth of fund data volume being one aspect draining resources and time. As regulatory requirements are constantly changing, the provision of data and frequency of exchange alongside the increasing number of players within the fund management ecosystem are contributing to rising operational costs.

Ensuring fund data quality and accuracy throughout this process is paramount, but equally time consuming. You need to set aside time to determine what fields, files and documents need to be sent over to distributors. All while being mindful of when to transmit your information and how often - adding more variables to the process of distributing funds.

To add, the complexity of cross-border fund distribution and compliance, while adhering to local market requirements and languages is another contributing factor.

These challenges highlight the need for integrated and state-of-the art technologies backed by expert professionals to help you manage and overcome these challenges.

How FE fundinfo’s Fund Information Hub solves the key challenges of data management and global distribution 

Thanks to its highly sophisticated value chain technology and our Golden Source fund data at the core, the Fund Information Hub portal, facilitates simplified, transparent and comprehensive data management, data and document distribution, and investor and regulatory report production.

Reduce the administrative burden of complex fund data management

The Fund Information Hub has the power to transform your fund data management and alleviate your teams from the complexities and administrative burdens.

Generating large quantities of fund data points bears a number of risks if done inadequately. Data needs to be continuously verified, validated and maintained for it to be suitable for document production or further distribution via templates into the market. Any inaccuracies in data mismanaged internally translates into errors distributed via templates or documents into the market resulting in a domino effect of loss of sales, damage to an asset manager`s reputation or even fines.

Additionally, data management involving multiple parties such as internal teams and outsourced functions increases risk of error with the added to-and-fro of emails and multiple points of exchange. Thanks to the automated workflows triggered by events, FIH simplifies and streamlines the entire process, giving you complete control over your data management functions.

FIH also gives you access to FE fundinfo’s golden source fund database, allowing you to cross-reference your data for quality assurance purposes.
