About Cascade

Cascade aims to facilitate the complex role that administrators play in the financial sector by offering one centralised solution where the whole relationship of a client and governance process is driven by a single product.
In biochemistry a Cascade is a chain of reactions in which the product of a previous step is the substrate of the next. This concept is also relevant to business operations where actions are sequential. You track a lead, negotiate, send an offer, onboard the client, provide various services, which themselves may be sequential.
Our Platform simplifies, organises and automates the operational complexities of Fiduciaries, Fund Administrators and Law Firms, structuring their processes for day-to-day activities (Register function, Transfer Agency, Compliance & AML/KYC, Sales, Risk, Project Management, Set Up among others). It replaces multiple external applications used by operational teams, thus ensuring better control from a team management point of view.

Targeted issues

By offering a holistic approach to operations, Cascade resolves:

  • The need for multiple external applications e.g. AML/KYC, project management.
  • Decentralised information, often maintained on individual staff-s PCs or mobile phones.
  • A large number of logins and passwords.
  • Lack of clarity and overview on important projects and processes.
  • No visibility on staff progress on an ongoing basis.
  • Issues and problems not being flagged before they arise.
  • Critical client documentation expiring and blocking transactions or other business.
  • Repetitive input of the same data in to different platforms and softwares.
  • Staff carrying out tasks and functions in their own way and not having templates to follow.
  • The lack of affordable suitable IT tools available, specifically for SMEs.

Features

Cascade represents ONE environment with MODULAR approach.
