About this session

Fund finance is where the cost of manual process is most visible and least discussed. Capital calls calculated in spreadsheets and checked by hand. Portfolio company reporting arriving in twenty formats and retyped into a twenty-first. Reconciliations between the administrator, the accounting system and the CRM that never quite agree.

What we’ll cover

• The real cost of the close: where senior finance time actually goes, and what it displaces

• Data in: portfolio company reporting, bank and administrator files, and document extraction into usable data

• Calculation and control: capital calls, distributions, allocations and waterfalls — what AI assists with, and what it must never own

• Reporting out: management accounts, LP statements, quarterly packs, and the shift to review

• Audit, valuation and regulatory support: building support packs from source, and what auditors and administrators expect

• Controls, accountability and defensibility: segregation of duties, sign-off, versioning, and avoiding the black box

• Live Q&A

45 minutes including live Q&A. You’ll leave knowing how to audit an AI-assisted number, and why a model must never be the engine for anything that hits an LP statement.
