The new interface offers enhanced information automation and saves multi-manager organizations tremendous time with their research and due diligence processes.

Advent's Tamale RMS® is the only RMS to offer the IntraLinks service to its multi-manager clients. The robust interface:

Enables automatic transfer of monthly documents from hedge fund and private equity managers to Tamale RMS®, categorized according to the client's preferences,
Eliminates multiple extra steps and manual data entry to add the necessary data into a single system of record for research (Tamale RMS®), and
Automates due diligence processes with Tamale RMS® audit reporting to allow investment managers to focus on higher value-added work, such as increasing returns for their investors.

Over 100,000 global limited partners, including endowments, foundations, funds of funds and other investor organizations, use IntraLinks to download private equity and hedge fund monthly updates from over 500 alternative asset firms, such as private equity and hedge fund managers. In addition, nearly all of Advent's multi-manager clients that have a private equity or alternatives arm already have an existing relationship with IntraLinks to download their monthly letters, statements, audited financials and marketing materials. With this new offering, managers can now streamline the process of attaining data from disparate hedge fund and private equity managers via IntraLinks, and deposit and categorize them directly into Tamale RMS®.
