Import Investment-Level Transactions to the Private i Platform, and More!

In the latest Private i® Platform updates, we have added exciting new functionality, enhanced Dashboards, and included more fields to choose from within Selection Sets. Notably, we added the Company Fundamentals Review to the Private i Platform home page, which presents summary statistics across many key operating metrics, including revenue growth, EBITDA growth, EBITDA multiples, and net debt multiples for Buyout-held companies in the Burgiss Manager Universe.

Our Portfolio Management users who have the appropriate rights can now import investment-level transactions, such as funding, fee, stock, cash, and valuation records, as well as FX rates to the platform via Microsoft Excel templates. For our Portfolio Management users who need to manage post stock distribution details for stock transactions, a new window called Manage Distributed Stock is available within Investments > Ledgers. Users can record actions to reflect changes to their position for sales, transfers, dividends, splits, and/or updates to the value of the shares originally distributed.

Additionally, important enhancements are accessible to clients who subscribe to Portfolio Management and/or Transparency Data. Within Selection Sets, which are saved, filtered sets of investments, additional asset-, investment-, and portfolio-level fields are now available to select. Selection sets can be used within Reporting, Dashboards, and Configurable Dashboards, as well as in the Investments and Assets grids. Within Dashboards, asset-, entity-, holding-, and portfolio-level custom fields with a field type of boolean or lookup are now available Grouping options within applicable investment-based and holdings-based dashboards. Also related to Grouping options, more entity-level fields are now available, and they are also available for filtering within the Master Filters tab in applicable holdings-based dashboards.

Transparency Data users will also benefit from additional enhancements we made within Dashboards. The Industry Exposure and Geography Exposure charts on the Industry and Geography tab of the Holdings-based Exposure Analysis dashboard now allow users to click into the charts to drill down to the entity level and view which entities are in a specific industry or geographic location. Furthermore, the Transparency Data Status dashboard now includes the Audited field, which indicates whether we received audited financial statements for the asset as of the selected quarter end date. Additionally, the Asset GUID and Asset ID fields are now accessible in the export of the dashboard. For clients who also have a license for Carbon Footprinting of Private Equity and Debt Funds, additional fields are now included in the exports of the Fund Table and Entity Table tabs in the Holdings-based Carbon Footprint Analysis dashboard.

For Portfolio Management users, the Private i Platform Excel Add-in now supports the use of Currency Neutral Sets in applicable investment-based functions.

Note: Users must download and install the latest version of the Private i Platform Excel Add-in to use Currency Neutral Sets in applicable investment-based functions.
