Ultimus Partners with FundGuard to Provide a Technology-Driven NAV Contingency Solution
Enhancing Its Fund Administration Offering for Investment Managers

Ultimus Fund Solutions, a leading independent provider of full-service tech enabled fund administration, accounting, middle office and investor solutions to traditional and alternative fund managers, continues to invest in technology driven solutions, offering its investment manager clients an enhanced contingent NAV (net asset value) solution utilizing FundGuard’s platform. The FundGuard solution allows Ultimus to offer clients additional services to calculate real time contingent NAVs for their registered funds. Clients can also utilize the solution for shadow NAV monitoring as an oversight to the normal daily NAV calculation process.

Commenting on the new solution, Bill Tomko, EVP, Head of Fund Servicing at Ultimus, said, “Business Continuity Planning is a critical component of our over-all service offering to our clients. Three years ago, we migrated to a multi-region cloud-based server architecture with real-time replication between regions. The FundGuard solution allows us to provide our clients who want the additional daily oversight and capabilities of an independent NAV contingency system.”

Commenting on the FundGuard relationship, Tenkman commented, “We are also evaluating other services from FundGuard we can leverage to provide to clients. Working with business partners such as FundGuard, help us advance our fund administration offering and provide us with innovative solutions and first to market technology that many other service providers don’t have.”
