In 2022 Fundipedia onboarded more new clients than in any previous year. Our teams created a range of new features in response to new and existing customer feedback that ensures Fundipedia continues to evolve to meet the ever-changing data management demands across our wider industry.
If you would like to see one or more of these features in action please get in touch for a demo.
A wide range of powerful enhancements are planned for 2023, including new additions to Fundi Launch Workflow that our clients use to drive down product lifecycle times and increase data accuracy.
