Multi-manager funds have quietly emerged as one of the most dynamic and rapidly expanding segments of the hedge fund industry. In an environment where allocators are demanding consistency, disciplined risk management, and real downside protection, the multi-manager model is purpose-built to deliver. But behind the steady returns lies a highly sophisticated operating machine. From rapidly onboarding portfolio managers to managing complexity across asset classes and strategies, running a multi-manager platform is anything but simple.
In this episode of Tech It Up, our hosts sit down with SS&C Advent's Aani Nerlekar, Managing Director of Solutions Management & Sales Engineering, and Jordan Daub, Managing Director, Sales Engineering, to unpack what’s driving the rise of multi-manager funds and explore the challenges and opportunities shaping their evolution.
