FundApps provides compliance as a service to the investment management industry. Monitoring over 15% of the global AuM for shareholding disclosure every day. Four years ago, we were at the stage where our core service was not working optimally for a significant number of our clients. Clients experienced unpredictable runtimes, slow runtimes and even batch process failures. And it was a sales barrier. We decided to take the plunge and rearchitect the platform - and as a B-Corp, demonstrating our commitment to social and environmental performance, we did so while focusing on scale and sustainability. This is the story of how we did it.
