FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is fund selection software?

Fund selection software is a platform that helps institutional allocators screen, evaluate and select investment funds from large databases. AlternativeSoft's fund selection software covers 500,000+ hedge funds, mutual funds and private equity funds, with 4,000+ risk and performance metrics, peer-group benchmarking, and AI-powered due diligence.

How is manager selection software different from fund selection software?

They are usually used interchangeably. Manager selection software focuses on evaluating the fund manager (track record, style, factor exposures, operational quality); fund selection software focuses on the fund itself (performance, fees, terms, drawdowns). AlternativeSoft does both in one platform.

Which databases does the fund selection software cover?

AlternativeSoft integrates with Bloomberg, eVestment, Morningstar, Preqin, Pitchbook, HFR, Albourne and others. You can also upload your own data via Excel or API.

Can I run peer group analysis inside the fund selection workflow?

Yes. Peer group analysis is built into the platform — every fund you screen can be benchmarked against thousands of strategy peers across Sharpe, Sortino, drawdown and other metrics, with quartile rankings visualised.

Is the platform suitable for fund of funds?

Yes — AlternativeSoft is widely used by fund of funds, fund of hedge funds (FoHF), pension funds, endowments, family offices and OCIO firms for both fund selection and portfolio construction.
