Our Story

Turning Cost Centers into Value Drivers
Our journey began with a bold vision: to transform the financial industry by removing the operational complexities that hinder asset managers. Institutional investment managers, hedge funds, and family offices often find themselves frustrated by the daily grind of operational tasks and regulatory requirements, all of which pulls their focus away from generating superior returns.

Agulhas's robust platform is designed to free investment managers from these constraints. By integrating the critical functions of portfolio management, accounting, order execution, and data analytics into a single, cohesive system, Agulhas empowers firms to break free from operational headaches that can slow performance.

Leveraging advanced cloud technology, Agulhas ensures that all parts of an investment operation are interconnected and operate from a single source of truth. This unified approach provides real-time insights, enabling swift adaptability and continuous improvement. With regular updates and the flexibility to manage diverse asset classes, our platform ensures that clients are always equipped with the latest tools and capabilities.

At AFS, we pride ourselves on being more than just a technology provider. We are committed partners dedicated to driving our clients' success. By embracing innovation and fostering collaboration, we help asset managers navigate the complexities of financial administration with confidence and ease. Join us as we lead the charge in revolutionising financial operations, breaking free from operational constraints, and creating a future where efficiency and excellence are industry standards.
