Under LiquidMobile's Hood

Thursday, February 12, 2015

On February 4th, we launched LiquidMobile^SM to the alternatives industry—the eco-system covering alternative asset managers received an inside-look and commented on why our web-based app is a game-changer based on the trends being reported across the industry. In particular, our focus on a single app for investment analysis and reporting (real-time and historical) empowers today's fund manager to navigate volatile markets as well as mounting transparency requirements everywhere and at all times. Its forthcoming client reporting capabilities will allow portfolio managers and heads of investor relations to build and present customizable month and quarter-end pitchbooks on a tablet, with profound data to interrogate the results over different time horizons and levels of granularity.

Modern approach leads to 'Best New Cloud App' Award

We're excited to announce LiquidMobileSM was named Best New Cloud Application at the 2015 HFMWeek U.S. Technology Awards-- awards that celebrate hedge fund technology providers that have stood out over the past 12 months. The judging panel, made up of executives from emerging and established hedge funds, chose LiquidMobile due to its innovative approach to managing critical portfolio and investor data and information, in real-time and while at or away from the desk.

Why you should test-drive the app

Hedge funds that need to manage portfolio and risk analysis and reporting across multiple funds can now do it on a mobile device in real-time, all the time, everywhere. That's as long as they use Liquid Holdings newest app, LiquidMobile^SM, its real-time, handheld device -optimized risk management application. This feature-forward app allows managers to make faster and on-the-move investment decisions - and allows them to focus more time on the business of trading.

"It's designed for sophisticated portfolio managers, as well as for investors. It's all about consumption for improved decision making and understanding of the fund performance ─ where is that alpha coming from," O'Boyle tells Buy-Side Technology. "The ability to do real-time is incredibly unique in the market today, but what we also know is critical is historical data. All of our clients have access to real-time, as well as historical information. It's not just about real-time, it's not just about mobile, it's about getting the information that you need across all aspects of your portfolio."

"Gone are days of quarterly NAVs, month-end statements or T+1 reports ─ the requirement of the marketplace today is that the investor can see the performance of the fund relative to the marketplace. That's the No. 1 requirement," he says. "Hedge funds that don't have the ability to answer those questions when the investor asks lose a huge opportunity. Performance will always go up and it will always go down; the ability to help the investor understand why that performance is happening and what does it mean to them, that's the key to building long-term, trust-based relationships."

The new offering is expected to further appeal to young-minded companies interested in a more flexible, mobile structure. "You take a young fund manager who lives on his phone around the clock, and he can translate his business to this," said Brian Storms, CEO of Liquid Holdings. "When you introduce this concept of getting away from your office and you combine it with real-time information, you can literally run your business from anywhere. Most importantly, you can interface with your client in the two most important things that you do--reporting performance and raising capital. You can do that that in real-time, anywhere, anytime in a mobile environment."

LiquidMobile allows portfolio managers and their teams to dedicate more time to instituting and refining their investment methodology, instead of compiling and searching through data. It allows fund staff to communicate the impact current market conditions have on holdings as they happen, down to the security level, from any location.
