DIAMOS FeeManagement

Your solution for reliable fee calculation and management

The audit-proof calculation and management of fees is a particularly complex task in investment business. Solutions based on error-prone ‘workarounds’ (using Excel and other spreadsheet systems) often require a high level of manual effort which can imply a significant increase in operational risk.

DIAMOS FeeManagement fundamentally simplifies and optimizes fee management processes. At the push of a button, the system performs precise calculations for various types of fees – including performance fees – and can be used in combination with fund accounting, data provider and other third party systems. The solution supports the individual requirements of different business processes and models, such as those of custodians, transfer agents and investment managements companies.
