HedgeGuard is dual-native: traditional and digital assets live in one book of record. Our middle office applies the same discipline to both, so a hybrid fund doesn't need two operations providers.
Your traditional instruments and your digital-asset positions sit in the same book, reconciled to one set of figures. All supported instruments.
We reconcile balances and positions held across crypto exchanges and digital-asset custodians against your book, alongside your traditional custodians. [VERIFY on-chain wallet reconciliation is in service scope] TradFi, CeFi and DeFi integrations.
Crypto markets never close, but your NAV still needs a defined valuation point. We agree the cut-off with you and your administrator and reconcile to it every day. [VERIFY]
Our middle office sits between your front office and your external counterparties, intermediating, reconciling and challenging data on your behalf.
Our middle office analysts map your current process, then design the daily workflows with you. Once agreed, we apply them strictly, every day.
We run tripartite reconciliation between your administrator, your custodians and HedgeGuard. One point of contact, one process, one source of truth.
Our head of middle office can join advanced stages of investor due-diligence meetings. Our SOC 2 Type II report is available under NDA, and every action leaves an audit-ready trail.
Our team manages onboarding from planning to execution, working with your existing administrator, custodians, brokers and venues to keep disruption to your daily operations minimal. [VERIFY the 30/60/90 model applies to the service as well as platform go-live]
A fund launching on HedgeGuard, with middle office workflows in place from its first trades.
An existing fund moving its operations, history and open positions from its current set-up.
Every custodian, broker, venue and data feed connected and feeding your daily reconciliations.
Investors and their operational due-diligence teams expect institutional controls regardless of fund size. Meanwhile, every new prime broker, custodian or crypto venue adds another data set to reconcile. For most emerging and mid-sized managers, building that capability in-house means hiring before the assets justify it.

"HedgeGuard brought a unique combination of Portfolio Management Software and outsourced middle-office services that perfectly complements our operations"
How would you describe the relationship you have built with HedgeGuard?
HedgeGuard has been a trusted partner since the launch of Alphacap Digital Asset Management. From the outset, the relationship extended beyond implementing a portfolio management platform. We chose to work with HedgeGuard because we shared a common vision: leveraging advanced technology to build a modern, scalable investment management business.
Over the years, HedgeGuard has become more than a software provider. Their team has consistently demonstrated a deep understanding of our operational requirements and has supported our growth with both technology and industry expertise.
Why did you select HedgeGuard?
The market offers many Portfolio Management System (PMS) providers, but HedgeGuard was the only solution that met all of our operational and investment management requirements.
We needed an institutional-grade Portfolio Management System capable of managing both assets and liabilities while providing accurate portfolio accounting, position management, and investment oversight. At the same time, we wanted to benefit from outsourced middle-office services to simplify our daily operations and reduce operational risk.
Rather than deploying multiple systems and service providers, HedgeGuard delivered an integrated solution combining portfolio management software with experienced middle-office support. This unified approach has streamlined our operating model while giving us confidence that our investment operations are managed efficiently.
Another key differentiator was HedgeGuard's willingness to understand our business and implement features tailored to our specific workflows. Their flexibility and responsiveness made the platform an excellent fit for our evolving requirements.
The bottom line?
Implementing HedgeGuard has delivered significant productivity gains across our investment operations. By combining powerful portfolio management software with experienced operational support, our team can focus on investment decisions while relying on efficient trade processing, portfolio oversight, and operational workflows.
Working with HedgeGuard also gives us access to experienced professionals who understand the complete investment operations lifecycle—from portfolio management and fund operations to reporting and reconciliation. As our business grows, the platform and the supporting middle-office services scale with us, allowing our operating model to evolve without unnecessary complexity.
For asset managers, hedge funds, family offices, and digital asset investment firms seeking a modern Portfolio Management System combined with outsourced middle-office services, HedgeGuard has proven to be a reliable long-term technology and operations partner.
