Case Study: GAO Capital achieves institutional-class fundraising and real-time portfolio management with Refinitiv AlphaDesk

Raising Hedge Fund Capital In The Time Of Covid

Singapore-based GAO Capital needed institutional-class systems to support a strategic shift into commingled funds and fundraising during the Covid pandemic. Faced with large volumes of complex data, remote working requirements and the limits of spreadsheet-based processes, GAO Capital selected Refinitiv and its Refinitiv AlphaDesk portfolio-management solution (with integration to Refinitiv Eikon) to meet those needs.

Refinitiv implemented AlphaDesk with embedded reconciliation, portfolio reporting and automation, providing smooth onboarding and highly responsive post‑go‑live support. The solution let GAO Capital make real-time decisions across locations, trade multi-jurisdictional and CFD positions faster, reduce reliance on spreadsheets and streamline operations—enabling the firm to pursue its fundraising goals during the pandemic.
