Northern Trust Digitizes Onboarding for Investors in Capital Funds

Northern Trust and Fenergo announced their partnership in May of 2022 to enhance the investor onboarding journey in private capital funds. The collaboration aims to digitize and streamline onboarding journeys and due diligence processes for anti-money laundering (AML) requirements such as Know Your Customer (KYC).  

Clive Bellows, head of Global Fund Services, EMEA, at Northern Trust, said:

“Northern Trust will deploy Fenergo’s technology in tandem with the expertise of our servicing teams to onboard investors faster through an efficient digital portal. The development will support clients and investors throughout the lifecycle, including continuous risk assessment of investor data, periodic reviews, as well as offboarding. Moreover, the reduction in manual document flow will enable our teams to focus on more value-added activities on behalf of our clients and further enhance our information security protocols."
