Sourcing for new opportunities can be a tedious and time-consuming process. Here at DiligenceVault, we aim to minimize the friction and pain points that managers and investors typically face by streamlining the process in an easy and digestible manner, all within one platform.
What is an opportunity?
An opportunity on DiligenceVault is a time bound RFP/RFI that has been issued an investor/investment consultant. There are 2 ways to access to an opportunity if you are an Asset Manager:
- You have an opportunity URL that you have received from a potential investor or found a URL listed on their website
- View the full list of open opportunities listed on the Investor Pitch page on the platform
Why on DiligenceVault?
When you apply for an opportunity through our platform, you are able to utilise all of your content in your Q&A Center, Documents and much more. Additionally, you can easily collaorate with your colleagues to ensure that you and your team submits the best responses.
As the questions posed in the opportunities are customised by the investor, that means they will be receiving the necessary information that they will need to kickstart the campaign process, eliminating the back and forth that is typically faced if insufficient data is provided by managers.
You can also track when the investor has started reviewing your submission on the platform.
