Infrastructure for the multi-PM model

ForeStrat provides centralized data and trade operations for multi-manager funds and capital allocators, one platform for vendor consolidation, PM-level risk, OEMS, internal crossing, and managed middle office.

A centralized data and operations platform purpose-built for multi-manager, multi-strategy funds and capital allocators. ForeStrat makes your PMs more productive, your costs more defensible, and your operational risk measurably lower.

The multi-PM challenge

Asset classes, frequency, strategy, geographies, and everything in between

Running a multi-manager, multi-strategy structure is operationally complex with variety in multiple dimensions: frequency, latency, geographies, asset classes, instruments, datasets. Every PM's data needs differ. Vendor contracts proliferate. Cost allocations become opaque. Reconciliation breaks multiply as prime broker count increases.

Risk limits exist on IMA but are tough to enforce and monitor in real time. Your best operational talent spends its time firefighting instead of scaling the platform.

01Duplicate vendor subscriptions across PM books with no volume leverage
02Risk limits documented in spreadsheets, enforced inconsistently
03End-of-day batch P&L with zero intraday exposure visibility
04Middle office headcount scaling with AUM rather than staying fixed
05Each new PM adds another OEMS config and reconciliation workflow
06Operational surface area expands with headcount, costs grow exponentially

The cost is not just operational. It shows up in PM hiring conversations, in risk events when a catastrophic limit breach goes undetected until close, and in investor due diligence when your cost structure can't be cleanly explained at the PM level. ForeStrat was built to address the multi-manager, multi-strategy structure, not as a point solution for one workflow, but as the unified infrastructure layer that is the foundation of your operation.

Data infrastructure

DataStrat: centralized data across PMs

One data platform. Multiple PMs. Full control.

Vendor procurement rationalization

Consolidate all data vendor contracts under a single managed relationship with enterprise contracts, collapsing cost per PM significantly. Eliminate duplicate subscriptions, negotiate from aggregated volume, and allocate costs cleanly to each PM book.

Custom and alternative dataset access

Our team builds datasets that don't exist on any vendor shelf, web scraping, prediction markets, EDGAR feeds, supply chain signals, and unstructured sources like PDFs, Twitter, and Discord. Every PM gets access to the same proprietary data edge.

Vendor feed management

Full management of all major and niche financial data vendor feeds with backfills, quality checks, normalization, and delivery. No data engineering headcount required at the fund or PM level.

Cross-feed integration and feature engineering

We link, normalize, and join data across all feeds using our ontology and knowledge graph. We work directly with each PM team to extract and engineer alpha-generating features from the consolidated data layer.

Trade operations

TradeStrat: centralized trade operations

Shared execution and middle office across multiple PMs, without full-time tech/ops hiring.

PM-level risk limit enforcement

Real-time pre-trade and post-trade risk checks at the individual PM level, including gross/net exposure, concentration limits, drawdown triggers, and instrument restrictions. Limits set by the fund, enforced by the platform, with built-in compliance checks and surveillance.

PM P&L and risk dashboards

Live intraday P&L and risk visibility across every PM book, consolidated at the fund level. Fund risk and operations have full view while each PM sees their own book, attribution, exposure, and performance updated in real time.

Low-latency OEMS and smart order wheel

Centralized low-latency OMS routes orders across your approved broker panel based on strategy type, instrument, and best execution criteria. ~10 microsecond OEMS latency with full TCA reporting and drill-down analytics per PM.

Internal crossing between PMs

Identify and execute natural crosses between PM books before going to market. Reduce market impact, lower transaction costs, and maintain clean audit trails across the fund.

Fully managed middle office

Corporate actions, broker and custodian reconciliations, IBOR maintenance, and daily P&L sign-off handled by ForeStrat's combination of AI automation and experienced human operators.

Cost allocation and transparency

Every data cost, execution cost, and operational cost allocated cleanly to the correct PM book. Audit-ready reporting, no more end-of-quarter allocation disputes.

PM retention and recruitment

The talent argument

"The best PMs choose platforms, not just IMA. Institutional-grade clean data, fast execution, real-time risk visibility, zero operational drag becomes a competitive advantage in hiring and retaining talent."

ForeStrat makes your fund the place where PMs can focus entirely on alpha.

01Top PMs evaluate your infrastructure, not just your mandate
02Clean L3 exchange data and real-time risk on day one
03No six-to-nine month plumbing build before generating alpha
04Operational friction is a leading indicator of PM dissatisfaction
05PM churn costs extend far beyond the obvious unwind
06When infrastructure works, it disappears from the conversation
Institutional pedigree

Built by practitioners

ForeStrat was not designed in a product studio or assembled from acquired point solutions. It was built by a team that operated inside the largest trading organizations in the world, and rebuilt that infrastructure from first principles as a multi-PM platform.

The core team of AI engineers and technologists have worked together in AI and fintech for more than a decade, delivering production systems for Citi, Credit Suisse, UBS, Morgan Stanley, and S&P Global.

Start the conversation

We have onboarded 3 PMs in the last 4 months across US, EU, and APAC, with 2 more going live in the next 2 months. We handle 25,000 trades per PM per day and are connected to all major data vendors, LSEG, FactSet, S&P, Bloomberg, and already curating datasets from prediction markets, web scraping, broker research PDFs, Reddit, Discord, and X.

ForeStrat partners exclusively with multi-strategy funds and capital allocators. Let's talk if you want institutional-grade infrastructure without a nine-figure budget.
