From Manual Chaos to Digital Clarity for Financial Operations

Digitizing deal management and approval workflows using Microsoft Power Platform to improve operational transparency and accelerate financial decision-making.

  • Lack of centralized workflow tracking caused delays in deal approvals and fund disbursement decisions.
  • Paper-based checklists and manual document handling consumed significant time and increased the chances of human error.

Edelweiss Alternative Asset Advisors (EAAA), a leading alternative investment platform managing large-scale AUM across private credit and real assets, operates across global financial hubs.

  • Distributor data and fund/class mappings were managed across disconnected systems, making centralized oversight and control difficult.
  • Complex agreement structures and compliance requirements required manual configuration, increasing the risk of errors and inefficiencies.
  • Tracking investor-distributor affiliations across their lifecycle lacked transparency and consistency, impacting data integrity.
  • Limited access to real-time performance insights restricted the ability of teams and distributors to make informed decisions.
