London– 29 September 2022 – Accelex, a SaaS platform redefining alternative investment data management, is pleased to announce they have entered into an agreement with Kirchliche Zusatzversorgungskasse des Verbandes der DiözesenDeutschlands (KZVK), the German partner for company pension schemes covering participating employers from the Catholic Church and charitable sectors. KZVK plans to apply the Accelex solution to a wide range of alternative investment assets, including private equity, infrastructure, private debt and real estate to bring greater efficiencies to the team. The Accelex solution digitalizes the manual process of extracting performance and transaction data – at both the fund and underlying asset level – from manager reports typically delivered in complex PDF formats.

 

During this exciting period of growth for the alternative investment industry, sophisticated investors like KZVK are transitioning highly manual data management workflows to modern technologies and benefitting from reductions in operational drag and associated costs while delivering better insights to their investment teams.

 

“We find the Accelex team, their solution as well as the development plans compelling and we are excited to work with them” said Stefan Schnurbus, Head of Private Markets at KZVK. “The Accelex solution gives us seamless access to detailed investment data across a range of manager reports and formats. As our private funds portfolio grows it is imperative we can effectively assess both funds and their portfolio companies as part of our regular performance and exposure reporting. Additionally, we intend to explore ways to extract specific ESG data in collaboration with the Accelex team”.

 

“KZVK is on an exciting journey towards digitization, and we are delighted to partner with such a well-established public institution to enable this transformation,” said Stuart Tait, Director at Accelex. “Our partnership will allow KZVK to focus their efforts on value added activities for their members, rather than dedicating expensive resources to the acquisition, analytics and reporting of data”.
