How can Private Equity firms leverage strategic digital transformation, innovative technologies and hyperautomation to get ahead of the competition, boost performance and maximize ROI?

We know digital transformation is a top priority for businesses across all industries. But in recent years, adoption within private equity firms has seen wide-scale acceleration, creating a highly competitive environment.

In this blog, we’ve identified three key stages at which hyperautomation in particular can transform operations and add immense value to Private Equity firms.

1. Deal Due Diligence

One of the most time-consuming, labor-intensive functions within Private Equity firms comes during the deal acquisition phase. Firstly, it proves time-consuming to identify potential targets for investment. And subsequently, deal evaluation and execution processes are typically slow and overly complex. Delays, inflated costs, and plummeting job satisfaction levels are all too common.

But it’s not all bad. In fact, the convoluted, repeatable nature of these processes make them perfect digital transformation use cases. Hyperautomation removes duplication from the due diligence process, standardizes discovery documents and data requests for automation processing, and automatically brings bottlenecks to the surface. The result is reduced time and effort, increased productivity, improved data quality and, ultimately, more acquisitions and smarter investments.

2. Onboarding investors

Creating a streamlined, user-friendly investor journey makes good business sense. Not only does it strengthen relationships and build trust in the onboarding process – it also speeds up the deal lifecycle, creates self-service opportunities and satisfies compliance requirements.

Where many Private Equity systems are still manual, we recommend an online portal with an automated journey that frees up staff for more high-value relationship management tasks, while keeping records organized and accessible. And that’s just one example of how hyperautomation can help you improve the investor experience.

3. Portfolio management

When it comes to portfolio management, there’s a rich array of different opportunities and use cases to define, which will depend on the individual business and its maturity. The key thing to consider is how far along the business is when it comes to process optimization, operational efficiency, and customer experience.
