Validus Risk Management has launched of Fund Finance Ops, a new technology solution designed to streamline fund finance operations for private capital managers. This initiative enhances the capabilities of Validus’ flagship Horizon platform, reducing operational burdens and mitigating risk for clients managing fund finance facilities.
Fund Finance Ops addresses the growing complexity of fund debt structures by automating and simplifying core operational processes. The solution enables Validus to manage drawdown requests, repayment notices, covenant compliance, and interest and fee reconciliations on behalf of clients, providing borrowers with real-time visibility into their facilities through Horizon™, Validus’ proprietary technology platform.
Horizon equips private capital managers with the tools to make more informed risk and portfolio decisions. The platform tracks critical metrics such as liquidity, value at risk, hedge effectiveness, and the impacts of leverage and derivatives on portfolio assets. With the introduction of Fund Finance Ops, Horizon now expands its risk, trading, and portfolio capabilities with robust workflows and reporting tailored to fund finance operations.
Developed in close collaboration with fund managers, administrators, and lenders, Fund Finance Ops enables clients to track commitments, capital calls, and distributions while updating the borrowing base dynamically as the fund evolves. It streamlines data management, capacity tracking, documentation, and reconciliations across borrowers, administrators, and lenders. Quantitative forecasting tools allow users to project cash flows and interest payments, while real-time dashboards provide up-to-date information on borrowing bases, sub-limits, and credit exposures, including FX and interest rate hedges. The platform integrates control limits, drawdowns, repayments, covenant checks, approvals, audit trails, alerts, and customised reporting, and accelerates document generation and reconciliations through seamless automation.
Gianluca Lorenzon, Head of Fund Finance Advisory at Validus Risk Management, said, “The administrative burden for the borrowers’ operations teams is significant; errors can be costly and damage relationships. Fund Finance Ops is designed to address the challenges of managing increasingly complex funding structures. With our tech and unmatched expertise, we deliver the most efficient and accurate solution to streamline fund finance operations. The client teams arranging the facilities can be confident that the nuances they negotiate will be captured effectively. By helping operations teams make better decisions and freeing their time to focus on higher value tasks, we are simplifying fund financing overall – reducing risk across the ecosystem and enabling funds to scale in a cost-effective and robust manner.”.
