AlphaCert – Simplifying complex investment data management

About AlphaCert

AlphaCert is a global financial technology company that helps investment managers and superannuation firms turn complex investment data into a trusted asset. We enable organisations to take control of their data so they can manage risk, meet regulatory obligations and make better investment decisions.

Get ahead in a time of change

Artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping how investment teams work and the insights they can get. But outcomes are only as good as the data it relies on. We help forward-thinking firms to take proof of concepts into production, leveraging AI on top of contained, validated and well-governed data.

Start small and leap ahead

Our modular platform aggregates, validates, calculates and reconciles data to create a single source of truth. Clients gain fast, reliable access to investment data, enabling accurate decisions, regulatory compliance and cost control - while reducing risk from spreadsheets and manual processes.

As the engine behind the scenes, AlphaCert gives time back to your team to stay focused on what matters most; serving investors and generating consistent returns.

Scale with confidence

We work with organisations managing funds from $1 billion to $400 billion. Many start with quick wins by solving specific business problems, such as replacing fragmented spreadsheets, automating validation and reconciliation, streamlining regulatory reporting or delivering NAV and shadow unit pricing. These early successes build trust and ROI, while providing a pathway to make AlphaCert the strategic backbone for a single source of investment data truth.

Our open, AI-ready platform reduces the reliance on key people and manual processes. Data is managed in a controlled, easy to use system, with a full audit trail. AlphaCert delivers the right balance of automation and control, helping you operate efficiently today and adopt AI safely tomorrow.

What we offer

Alongside our technology platform, AlphaCert provides deep industry and technology expertise, client support and professional services. We partner with clients to deliver complex transition projects, bespoke solutions, as well as fast onboarding implementations (in weeks not months) of our off-the-shelf modules.

What sets us apart

• Simplicity with depth – powerful enough for complex fund structures, intuitive for busy teams.
• Scalable and modular – start small, expand to a full strategic backbone.
• Future-proof for AI - clean, governed data ready for analytics and intelligent agents.
• Local understanding with global reach - strong presence in Australia and New Zealand, backed by global best practice.
• Ongoing support and services – partnership beyond implementation.
• Lower total cost of ownership - faster to implement and easier to maintain than heavyweight enterprise EDM platforms.

Turning complexity into clarity

• Centralise and master investment data from multiple sources covering complex portfolio structures and all instruments with multi-layer look-through.
• Automate reconciliation and validation: daily sign-off, performance calculations, regulatory reporting.
• Provide real-time oversight: unit pricing, NAV control, ESG enrichment, compliance checks and post-trade monitoring.

Meeting regulatory requirements efficiently

With APRA CPS 230 now in effect, superannuation firms face expectations on service-provider risk, operational resilience, cybersecurity and business continuity. AlphaCert helps you comply and de-risk:

• Business continuity and resilience: ISO 27001-certified, robust disaster recovery and business continuity processes, fully auditable.
• Third-party risk control: Independent unit pricing and NAV verification with exception alerts and workflow sign-off.
• Operational risk management: Automated post-trade compliance and intelligent exception handling.

How we deliver

• Open, connected architecture
• Enterprise-grade security and resilience - ISO 27001 compliance, APRA CPS 234 alignment, customisable disaster recovery and BCP, full encryption and single-tenant data models.
