There’s a flurry of activity and new features on the way within Dynamo’s latest release for February 2023. Don’t wait to read the latest news below on what’s happening in and around Dynamo’s end-to-end alternative investments platform.
For General Partners (GPs)
Fund Accounting & Investor Services Goes Next-Level
On the heels of being recognized with the “Best Client Accounting (US)” award at The Second Annual WealthBriefing WealthTech Americas Awards 2023, Dynamo is pleased to share the enhancement around the new Dynamo Accounting solution.
For the last 18 months, Dynamo’s product and innovation teams have worked diligently to strengthen its ability to handle general ledger accounting. To support this, Dynamo has enhanced its underlying schema in order to maintain a complete chart of accounts and set of mapping definitions. This has been done in a non-disruptive way, ultimately resulting in the platform’s ability to enable users to create transactions with a familiar workflow, which can result in the production of flexible journal entries.
In order to provide the ultimate flexibility to the Dynamo Accounting engine, we’ve created a Tabular Model that connects directly to the Dynamo database via Excel. Out of the box, we’re delivering a massive set of core reporting, which focuses on both financial reporting (audited financials, audit workpapers, analytical reports, etc.) as well as complex transactions (quarterly allocations, distribution waterfalls, etc.). Each template is pre-configured out of the box to run alongside our standard COA and associated attributes. Users will have the ability to tweak these reports or even create their own reports, and save them directly to the database for others in the organization to view.

Surveying more than 100 GPs, read these latest findings today in Dynamo’s Frontline Insight Report. Some key findings include:
- Keep Investing, the Returns Will Follow I GPs are mindful and cautious of current market conditions, yet demonstrate confidence in their investment strategies. The majority of GPs surveyed (68%) will not further diversify their portfolios in 2023. Rather, they will remain focused on their single, highest-performing asset class.
- Cautious with Costs I The majority of GPs (88%) indicated they will not shift their firm’s management fee structure. The current economic conditions have influenced them to keep costs at bay for their LPs.
- Tech Cuts ARE NOT on the Table I Even with market fragility in play, GP technology budgets are untouchable. Nearly half (49%) of GPs indicated that over the next 12 months, their tech budget will stay the same. Another 45% said they expect budgets to increase.
