Founded in 2018, FundGuard is transforming investment operations by leveraging cloud-native technology and AI capabilities to modernize and streamline investment accounting operations and workflows. Key to the company’s success has been the combined expertise of its leadership, including experienced funds industry executives and enterprise cloud technology and data science innovators. Backed by some of the world’s leading financial institutions and now with a total investment of over $150 million to date, this round follows two years of evolution and expansion, including new client acquisition, customer onboarding, significant hiring of top talent across Customer Success, R&D, Product Management and Sales, and the opening of the company’s Boston, London and Toronto offices.
“FundGuard is shaping the future of investment and fund accounting,” said Lior Yogev, CEO and Co-Founder, FundGuard. “This latest significant investment round reflects the ongoing support of the industry, the confidence our investors have in the value our products bring to the market, and their trust in our leadership and strategic roadmap.”
