Archway today announced enhancements to its Platform to automate alternative investment data workflows involving a strategic partnership with Canoe Intelligence (Canoe), a financial technology company focused on reimagining data management processes for alternative investors and capital allocators.

“As a part of our long-term vision for the Archway Platform, we have prioritized building data connectivity and integrations with complementary family office solutions that improve core business functions for our clients,” said Paul Freeland, Managing Director of Archway. “Family offices have a critical need for increased efficiency and automation of the otherwise manual activities associated with alternative investment data collection. We are excited to leverage Canoe’s automated workflow processes to enable our clients to receive extracts of their alternative investment data across statements, funds and managers for electronic import into the Archway Platform.”

As family offices continue to increase allocations to private equity, hedge funds, venture capital and real estate, they are seeking solutions to simplify the data aggregation required to report alternative investment performance and more efficiently complete the associated accounting. Through this strategic partnership with Canoe, automated workflows, such as document collection, data extraction and data delivery, can be integrated into the Archway Platform allowing its users to achieve greater efficiency in their alternative investment data processing. By leveraging these integrated tools, clients are able to seamlessly input, track and report on alternative investment data as a part of their broader investment portfolios.

“We are thrilled to partner with Archway and continue enhancing the technology and tools available to family offices and wealth managers allocating to alternatives,” said Michael Muniz, Partner and Chief Revenue Officer at Canoe Intelligence. “By working together, we are not only able to help Archway clients automate document collection, improve data extraction and validation accuracy, and automate delivery into the Archway Platform, but we are also able to help increase transparency and control over their entire alternative investment document workflow.”

Archway was recognized as the “Best Outsourcing / Business Process Outsourcing Provider” at the 2020 Family Wealth Report Awards.

“Archway is honored to be an award-winner at the Family Wealth Report Awards for the fifth consecutive year,” said Ryan Laughon, Head of Archway. “We have always prided ourselves on the variety and flexibility of our family office solutions and being recognized as the leading outsourced service provider this year underscores our unparalleled competencies in both technology and service solutions. This award highlights our firm’s ability to provide comprehensive bill payment, partnership accounting and client reporting service solutions and serves as a testament to the world-class team that supports our unique and complex client base.”

Archway has announced it is rolling out a new user interface for its award-winning Archway Platform℠ in late 2020.

The new user interface will include simplified navigational constructs and enhancements to its on-screen reporting including improved dashboard-style views. Additionally, the Archway Platform’s new front-end will be rewritten using responsive web design that will allow clients to access the platform via their mobile devices. The upgraded UI will also boast a new color scheme that enhances the overall aesthetic of the platform and offers end-users greater control over their display while improving visibility across the application. The upgrade is focused exclusively on enhancing the user experience and does not affect the technology’s underlying processing engine.

“After 18 months of intense design and development work, we are excited to announce that later this year we will be unveiling a reimagined and streamlined user interface for our family office fintech platform,” said Ryan Laughon, Head of Archway. “As an immediate result of this upgrade, our clients will enjoy a simplified, modern and responsive user interface affording them greater mobility and flexibility when using the application. Additionally, the move to a new front-end architecture represents a significant shift in our development strategy and provides our team with greater flexibility as we plan for future enhancements to the Archway Platform. Looking beyond 2020, this project will put us in a position to further enhance our workflow processes and develop new, innovative functionality that will ultimately deliver greater efficiencies to our clients.”
