Case study · Investment Research

An investment intelligence platform for institutional wealth funds and institutional investors.

We engineered an advanced investment research platform aggregating fund data, tracking mandates across geographies and asset classes, and surfacing actionable intelligence for institutional wealth funds, pension funds, and institutional investors at scale. (Client unnamed per preference.)

Challenge

The starting state.

Fund data was fragmented across providers (Bloomberg, Refinitiv, Preqin, custom feeds) with inconsistent normalization.
Mandate tracking was spreadsheet-driven; mandate changes were not versioned, breaking historical reproducibility.
IC presentation packs were assembled manually, with no audit trail tying decisions back to the data snapshot used.
Our approach

How we engineered it.

01

Source-agnostic ingestion

Adapter layer per data provider (Bloomberg, Refinitiv, Preqin, custom) with retries, fallback chains, and normalization at the boundary.

02

Versioned mandates

Mandates as first-class entities with version history, past allocations remain reproducible at the mandate-version level for regulatory or IC defense.

03

Decision lineage

Every dashboard cell traces back to its source row, with timestamp, transformation, and version. IC packs auto-archive with the data snapshot used.

04

Comparative analytics

Benchmarking, cohort comparison, risk-adjusted return analysis as first-class platform capabilities, not ad-hoc engineering requests.

What we built

Architecture and the systems it talks to.

Multi-source ingestion with provider-agnostic adapter layer
Versioned mandate model with first-class change events and historical reproducibility
Source-to-dashboard data lineage per cell, queryable and audit-replayable
IC presentation pack auto-archival with bound data snapshots
Comparative analytics: cohort, benchmark, risk-adjusted return, drift detection
API-first for downstream consumers; RBAC and encryption end-to-end
