Recommended Next Step: Benchmark Investor Operations
Industry data shows most firms underestimate the capital lost to operational drag and fragmented investor workflows.
To avoid hidden leakage, leading managers are conducting Investor Operations Risk Audits, short sessions that benchmark:
- Onboarding speed against LP expectations
- Transparency and reporting frameworks versus industry standards
- Exposure to compliance blind spots and operational gaps
Firms that complete these audits gain a clear baseline for improvement.
Pressure-test your investor experience.
