Investment
Cafe Clients Include Five Of Private
Equity International Magazine’s Top 50 Private Equity Firms.
NEW YORK, June 1, 2008
Investment Café can boast
of many milestones since the firm began providing its technology-based
financial and information reporting systems in 2001 and now the firm can add yet
another high water mark to its achievements: Five of the top 50 largest*
private equity firms are Investment Café clients, including #1-ranked The
Carlyle Group.
In
addition to winning the industry’s largest competitive review with the first
ranked Carlyle, two of the top three ranked firms are Investment Café clients,
as are Clayton, Dubilier & Rice, MatlinPaterson, and AIG.
Said Ken Pierce,
Investment Café’s Managing Director, “Although it is significant that some our
clients occupy the coveted top slots on the PEI top fifty list of PE firms, what is
equally remarkable is that all of our clients- large and small – benefit from
the platform that these top tier players have helped us create over the last
eight years. This enables funds at all levels the ability to offer their
clients a world class investor and communications service that is not only
proven but one that has been polished and refined by some of most experienced
players in the industry.”
Investment Café
was designed by private equity experts with alternative investment reporting as
its specific and exclusive focus and provides fund sponsors, advisors,
consultants and investors with an easy-to-use tool to analyze investment
performance, allocation of capital and risk exposure across multiple fund
investments. Investment Café also securely and efficiently manages a firm’s
communications with investors.
“We are extremely pleased with our firm’s
progress to date,” said Ben Mazza, a Director at Investment Café. “It was our strategy initially to partner
with large firms because we believed the rest of the market would follow their
lead. The productivity gains that are achieved in terms of managing and
uploading documents, information reporting, and investor relations can now be
had by firms large and small.”
Investment Café
can communicate with any back office system so it can accept a data feed
without the private equity sponsor having to overhaul their existing methods. Mr.
Pierce added that the firm’s service offering is another reason why many
leading middle market firms are choosing to partner with Investment Cafe as
well.
Investment
Café, which continues to rapidly gain market share with the addition of
prestigious private equity, hedge fund, venture capital and real estate investment
firms, provides investors with the
ability to generate capital accounts and detailed reporting on their
investments much like an online banking system, including starting and ending
balances as well as the underlying transactions supporting those balances.
