FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What does hedge fund portfolio management software do?
It tracks positions, performance, exposures and risk across every fund you hold, flags drift against targets, attributes returns and produces the reports your board and regulator expect.
Does AlternativeSoft include middle office capabilities?
Yes. Subscriptions, redemptions, cash, fee accruals, NAV reconciliation and trade workflow are handled alongside the analytics, so the portfolio you analyse is the portfolio you actually hold.
Can I set alerts on exposure or drift?
Yes. Set limits on strategy, manager, region, liquidity or factor exposure and receive an alert the moment a limit is breached.
How does performance attribution work?
Returns and volatility are attributed by manager, strategy, asset class and factor, so you can show exactly which decisions added or cost value over any period.
Is it suitable for a small allocator team?
Yes. The same platform serves teams of two and teams of fifty. Smaller teams typically use it to replace spreadsheets that one person understands.
