While opportunities abound for today’s hedge funds, they face significant challenges as well.
As Federal Reserve rate cuts and M&A activity, including strategic corporate investments in AI, gained momentum and geopolitical tensions eased, hedge fund performance heading into the fourth quarter began to surge, according to research from HFRI.
But while performance trends are rising, so are the expectations of allocators. Today, investors are looking beyond performance and taking a closer look at how hedge funds operate.
This focus puts operational infrastructure front and center.
Recent enhancements to Eclipse were developed to help fund managers navigate these challenges. Building on Eclipse’s all-in-one cloud-native platform, these enhancements give hedge funds the tools to optimize operations, reduce manual effort, and respond faster in changing markets.
Enhancement Updates: Providing Hedge Funds with Tools for Operational Efficiency
To achieve alpha, a hedge fund must run an efficient operational infrastructure.
Recent enhancements to Eclipse were designed to provide hedge funds with exactly that: Tools to streamline workflows, improve compliance oversight, and handle higher volumes more efficiently.
These new enhancements include features that enable users to:
Leverage Static Models for Smarter Rebalancing
Traditionally, rebalancing portfolios required manual calculations and adjustments that were time-consuming and prone to error. New enhancements to Eclipse change that by empowering users to upload a static model and automatically generate rebalancing orders.
This enables greater accuracy and efficiency. Portfolios stay aligned with target allocations, minimizing unintended risk exposure. Moreover, automating the generation of these orders frees up your team's time, enabling them to focus on strategic decisions rather than operational tasks.
Streamline Compliance Reviews with Pending Compliance Alerts
Eclipse now enables compliance teams to quickly view, filter, and approve flagged trades.
By reducing the time spent searching for potential violations, your team can focus its attention on higher-value oversight and risk management rather than administrative tasks.
Do More with Your Staging Blotter
With the updated staging blotter, you can import up to 3,000 orders and leverage advanced grid capabilities to sort, filter, and group them efficiently.
This new enhancement ensures that high-volume operations run smoothly and efficiently, even in fast-moving markets.
