Summary
IntraLinks has launched IntraLinks Investor Portals, a cloud-based investor communication platform designed to allow hedge funds, private equity and real estate managers to better differentiate their brands, meet the transparency demands of institutional investors and compete effectively for assets, according to the company's announcement as reported by Hedgeweek. The platform is described as scalable, secure and easy to use.
The product will be premiered at two alternative investment trade shows: SuperReturn International 2013 in Berlin on 26 February and the iGlobal Real Estate Private Equity Summit on 6 March. Andre Boreas, director of product marketing for alternative investments at IntraLinks, said that as institutional investors continue to allocate to alternatives, the rules of engagement across marketing, reporting and client service are changing quickly, and that the platform will be a critical tool for fund managers facing these challenges.
Adam Weinstein, managing director at New Mountain Capital, a USD9bn multi-strategy investment firm based in New York, said the firm had used IntraLinks for investor communication for more than ten years and was excited by the next evolution of the platform. He described a best-in-class marketing and client reporting solution as vital to competing successfully in the market.
Investor Portals will build on the existing IntraLinks platform, an enterprise-grade system for content sharing and secure collaboration between fund managers and investors. IntraLinks states that more than 500 hedge funds and private equity firms already share information with over 25,000 global endowment, foundation, pension, high-net-worth and advisor organisations through the platform.
The new product includes all existing IntraLinks benefits, including FileSplit, enhanced security, user access reports and iPhone/iPad support. It adds enhanced branding to reinforce a firm's image with institutional investors, content management tools to highlight information about the firm, its people and processes, and dashboards that use charts, tables and graphs to exchange critical data with investors.
