A global financial technology provider, Fidelity National Information Services, Inc. FIS, recently launched an upgraded version of its Private Capital Suite, transforming it into a cloud-native software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform. This strategic enhancement incorporates the newly launched Investor Services Suite, creating a comprehensive front-to-back system tailored for private equity firms.
At its core, the suite is designed to address the major challenges faced by the industry, ranging from manual inefficiencies to compliance hurdles. By leveraging automation, real-time data insights and secure cloud technology, this platform is crafted to streamline investor onboarding, portfolio analytics, fund accounting and reporting. A standout feature is its multijurisdictional compliance capabilities, enabling firms to effortlessly navigate global regulatory requirements — an increasingly vital factor as private equity strategies become more complex and cross-border in nature.
The launch comes at a crucial moment for the private equity industry, which is grappling with rising investor demands, complex regulatory requirements and the need for transparency. This suite aims to offer firms a flexible and scalable ecosystem to improve transparency, efficiency and investor trust. Additionally, the improvement of anti-money laundering and know your customer protocols highlights FIS’ focus on compliance and safeguarding investors.
As we look to the future, the enhanced suite positions FIS perfectly to tap into the increasing demand for technology in alternative investments. With private capital expanding its role in global portfolios, solutions like this could set the benchmark for operational excellence and regulatory flexibility in the industry. Also, it empowers firms to enhance their performance, boost client engagement and future-proof operations in an evolving financial ecosystem.
Backed by consistent revenue growth and a long-term focus on digital innovation, FIS is well-positioned to sustain its momentum. In the first half of 2025, the company reported 3.8% year-over-year growth in revenues.
