Empowering Investment Teams

Last Updated: December 15, 2024

Before using Venturis our clients faced significant issues that hindered their ability to focus on what mattered most, portfolio strategy and improving portfolio performance…here is what we heard most often.

"I wish we had a single source of truth for all our alternative investments in one place."

— Investment Director

"We need real-time visibility into our portfolio's performance and risk – not data that's weeks old."

— Portfolio Manager

"I want to make decisions based on data, not gut instinct or outdated spreadsheets."

— Chief Investment Officer

"It'd be a game changer to have all this update automatically – no more scrambling to collect data."

— Operations Manager

"We'd rather focus on strategy, not spend all week wrangling spreadsheets."

— Research Analyst

When your data management feels like chaos, it's not just frustrating – it directly undercuts portfolio performance. Opportunities slip through cracks, risks stay hidden, and your team ends up second-guessing every number instead of executing strategy.

We know how to turn your alternative investment Chaos into Clarity.

Portfolio Construction

Build pacing plans that hit target liquidity and diversification metrics. Model calls/distributions, strategies, and secondaries with allocator grade forecasts for each portfolio.

Commitment Pacing Software for Private Markets Allocators

Hitting policy targets without over or under committing requires more than a spreadsheet. Our portfolio construction model utilizes a Monte Carlo model for portfolio initial construction and ongoing portfolio optimization based on metrics you set. Venturis models fund cash flows, recycling, and secondary activity to keep your portfolio on track. Set targets for liquidity, sector and vintage diversification, and strategy buckets, then simulate commitment plans that respect your liquidity, risk limits, and pipeline.

Build Pacing Plans with Confidence

  • Allocator grade cash flow engine (calls, dists, fees, FX, secondary trades)
  • Policy aware modeling (strategy/geography/manager caps)
  • Scenario testing (base, bear, accelerated deployment)

Portfolio Construction from Plan to Execution

  • Use your fund models or ours to forecast and reforecast all fund capital calls & net outflows by quarter/month for each portfolio
  • See liquidity and strategy target bands and alert drifts
  • Export to manager reports; share securely with stakeholders

What Makes Venturis Different

  • Portfolio, Fund and Position level projections, comprehensive data ingestion, and allocator controls in one place.

Venturis Fund of Funds (FoF) Manager Support

Venturis provides FoF managers a single system to model, assess, and report management & incentive fees, hurdles, and net performance across complex alternative portfolios—historically and forward-looking.

What Venturis Does

  • Portfolio level FoF fees: Configure management and incentive/performance fees with portfolio specific hurdle rates with flexible bases (commitment, invested cost, NAV) and effective date changes.
  • Historical fee tracking: Persist and audit all calculated and manually entered fees
  • Forward projections: Project fees, carry waterfalls, and net returns for both the investor group (LPs) and the manager (FoF entity).
  • Investor & manager views: Dedicated outputs for LP reporting (net of FoF fees) and manager P&L (gross fees, net revenue after expenses, carry accruals).

How It Works

  1. Ingest & normalize: Load commitments, capital activity, NAVs, and valuations from your sources; standardize to Venturis schema.
  2. Model setup: Define fee schedules, hurdle parameters, and reporting cohorts (investor groups, sleeves, share classes).
  3. Calculate & project: Run historical calculations and forward scenarios (base, stress, pacing).
  4. Report & share: Publish investor ready and manager ready outputs (PDF, Excel, portal) with drill through.

Outputs You Get

  • Historical fee ledger: Periodized management and incentive fees with drivers and audit notes.
  • Projected fees & carry: Multi period forecasts with sensitivities (NAV growth, pacing, FX, write downs).
  • Net performance: Time weighted and money weighted returns net of FoF fees at portfolio and investor group levels.

Controls & Governance

  • Role based approvals for fee schedules and overrides.
  • Versioning & audit trail on every calculation.
  • Data lineage from source file → normalized record → fee output.

Why Venturis for FoF

  • Purpose built for alternatives: Handles commitments, capital calls/distributions, and irregular cash flows natively.
  • Manager & investor alignment: One system produces both manager economics and LP net outcomes—with identical data.
  • Faster closes: Automated workpapers and exports reduce manual fee work and reconciliation time.

Reporting

Venturis delivers actual and projected performance reporting for any scope you choose—any entity, investor, fund, class, sleeve, SMA, or the entire portfolio—in a single, coherent view. Actuals reconcile end-to-end: Net IRR (since inception and period), TVPI/DPI/RVPI, time-weighted returns, cash yields, and fee transparency all tie back to source systems.

Forward-looking analytics show what's coming—projected capital calls and distributions, NAV paths, liquidity calendars, and pacing versus plan—enhanced with stress cases and macro overlays so you see ranges, not just point estimates.

Benchmarks and validation are embedded, including PME variants (KS-PME, LN-PME), Direct Alpha, public index stacks, and peer cohorts, alongside variance flags using portfolio-company KPIs. Interactive views highlight J-curves, cohort curves, IRR drift and policy exposures (sector, geography, stage, manager) with real-time alerts and click-through evidence.

Delivery fits your workflow with role-based dashboards for CIO/IC/Ops, scheduled IC/board packs, and PDF/Excel/API exports—everything versioned with clear lineage—so you always know where you are, where you're headed, and what to do next.
