Part 1: Data Foundations: The Unseen Edge in Fund Allocation
Modern allocators are flooded with information: pitch decks, DDQs, ESG reports, regulatory filings, and fund documents, yet fragmented data slows decision-making and increases risk. This whitepaper explores how building a unified data foundation empowers allocators to move from reactive to proactive, ensuring faster, smarter, and more consistent outcomes.
What You’ll Learn:
- From Silos to Systems: Why fragmented data limits visibility and creates duplication.
- The Manager Data Triangle: Understanding the three core data streams and their challenges.
- Practical Use Cases:
-
- Manager Selection: Move from gut feel to data-driven confidence.
- Operational Due Diligence: Surface risks earlier with structured workflows.
- Compliance: Build proactive oversight with audit trails and lineage.
-
- Enterprise Approach: How connected data creates a single source of truth across teams, and across private and public markets.
- Future-Ready Architecture: Why clean, consistent data is key for AI applications and advanced analytics.
This whitepaper also uncovers how leading allocator teams are transforming their operations using connected data systems, unlocking better risk management, improved governance, and superior investment outcomes.
Part 2: AI and LLM in Fund Allocation: Why AI Success Starts with Clean Data
In Part I, we explored why unified data is the unseen edge for allocator firms. Now in Part II, we focus on a critical question: how do you prepare for AI without increasing risk?
Allocator firms are adopting Large Language Models (LLMs) for tasks like summarizing DDQs, generating IC memos, surfacing ESG risks, and answering complex questions in natural language. The potential is huge, but the reality is clear: AI is only as good as the data it uses. Without a strong foundation, AI does not just scale productivity, it scales mistakes.
What You Will Learn:
- Why many AI pilots fail and the data challenges behind them
- Four critical pillars for AI readiness:
- Structured Data and Context – Make documents AI readable
- Entity Resolution – Link relationships across managers and funds
- Governance – Control who sees what, when, and why
- Shared Taxonomies – Align language for accurate AI reasoning
- Use cases where AI delivers value across the allocator lifecycle
- How clean data transforms AI from an eager intern to a trusted advisor
