The financial landscape is undergoing a seismic shift, with data the new currency of investment management. Portfolios are becoming more complex than ever, with asset owners holding a vast array of assets across many different classes. It’s impossible to execute sound investment strategies without a centralised view and a data-driven single source of truth. However, the tools available to investors are failing to keep up.
55% of asset owners are still using spreadsheets for manual data consolidation, wasting as much as a week every month – time that could be better spent optimising the portfolio. And for those who have some level of automated data flows, just loading it is the comparatively easy part. Consolidating, classifying and reporting remains a huge challenge.
Imagine a future where every one of your investments, from every asset class, are automatically sourced, validated and analysable from one central hub. A platform that offers you and your team the capability to make swift, data-backed decisions that define your financial future.
With our founder’s extensive experience in institutional asset management, we understand these complexities intimately and have built our solution with this understanding and analytics power at its core. Sesame is not just a reporting platform; it’s your investment management command centre. It empowers asset owners, managers, and advisors with the ultimate centralised, data-driven solution for the challenges posed by modern investment management. So you can get a complete picture of wealth and build it for generations to come.
We foster a culture that strives for meaningful, impactful, smart, real results that can be quantified and verified.
We share our goals, communicate effectively and share information to empower educate and inform both our employees and clients.
We value and encourage creativity across our teams. We champion innovation and thinking outside of the box when it comes to solving complex challenges.
We are passionate about our work and the challenges we help our clients overcome.
We believe in progression based on merit and achievement.
We value everyone and treat people with dignity and professionalism. We foster diversity and inclusion and give everyone equal opportunity.
