Both established and emerging managers will benefit from an administrator with deep product expertise, market knowledge and administration expertise,” added Mr. Patwardhan.

Mr. Madan furthered, “Seeing how many funds – with my own being one of the first - have converted from other legacy-based providers is a testament to the industries’ appetite for a more efficient, cost effective, and secure platform.
