NAV Joins iConnections Get Verified Program: Clients Gain Credibility with Allocators and Reduce Monthly Workload

Allocators are wary of self-reported fund performance. Before they agree to a first meeting, most will want to know the source of the numbers.

The iConnections platform showcases member fund profiles, with more than 26,000 active LPs and GPs, representing $55 trillion+ in capital, using the platform to find, research, and evaluate investment opportunities. The Get Verified program offers the additional benefit of a prominent green "From Administrator" badge, verifying that the performance figures featured on your profile came directly from your administrator vs. via self-submittal.

NAV has recently partnered with iConnections in support of the Get Verified program, offering our clients the opportunity to not only dispel allocator skepticism, but also to offload the time-consuming chore of routinely uploading new figures to your iConnections profile.

"If a client chooses to enroll in Get Verified, our team at NAV will automatically deliver your performance data to iConnections, meaning there are no longer any questions about the validity of the numbers and your team has one less task to handle," said Sumit Sharma, Vice President, NAV Fund Services. "Allocators often demand independent confirmation of your fund's performance numbers before they will even commit to a conversation. Participating in the Get Verified program instantly gives your fund that added credibility — which could potentially be an important differentiator in the current competitive investment landscape."

iConnections states that funds participating in Get Verified consistently generate greater visibility and offers allocators the option to filter and view only profiles with administrator-sourced returns. Allocators use the platform free of charge. NAV will charge no additional fees to set up and manage your fund's ongoing data uploads, but fund managers must be an iConnections member to participate. If you aren't yet a member, membership and program details are available here: https://iconnections.io/get-verified/ .

What Changes for NAV Clients

Once enrolled in Get Verified, the performance numbers displayed with your iConnections profile will transmit directly from NAV's systems to iConnections on your fund's normal reporting schedule. The numbers an allocator sees are administrator-sourced and current, and no one on your team needs to remember to update them or dedicate time to manual uploads. Any fund we administer is eligible to participate and you can withdraw from the program at any time.
