Clearwater Analytics Announces Upgrades To Alternative Assets Solution

Clearwater Analytics has unveiled a series of significant upgrades to its Alternative Assets Solution at its Connect '25 conference, underscoring its commitment to addressing the operational and compliance challenges facing the rapidly expanding private credit market, which now exceeds $2.5 trillion in size. The enhancements are designed to provide institutional investors with the infrastructure needed to manage increasingly complex portfolios, streamline workflows, and meet rising regulatory demands as allocations to private credit continue to grow at a historic pace.

Among the most notable new features is the automation of bespoke loan structures, which eliminates the need for manual accruals, cash flow tracking, and custom loan calculations. This capability integrates directly with accounting workflows, reducing the risk of human error and freeing up teams to focus on higher-value activities. Clearwater has also introduced AI-driven fund research tools that apply advanced machine learning to fund documents and due diligence materials. By automating the review process, institutions can reduce research cycles from weeks to just days, thereby accelerating decision-making and enhancing responsiveness to market opportunities.

Another key enhancement is Asset Sync, a feature that ensures real-time accuracy across asset owners and managers by providing a single, unified source of truth. This functionality addresses one of the most persistent challenges in private markets: fragmented data systems that create inconsistencies and slow down reporting. In addition, Clearwater has launched a comprehensive mortgage module that consolidates residential and commercial mortgage data, automates modeling, and aligns reporting with global regulatory frameworks such as NAIC and Solvency II. This unified approach not only improves efficiency but also ensures compliance with increasingly complex international standards.

The importance of these upgrades is amplified by the broader trends shaping the private credit industry. Since 2018, institutional allocations to private credit have tripled, driven by investors seeking higher yields and diversification. However, this rapid growth has exposed significant bottlenecks in due diligence, data management, and compliance. Firms often struggle with outdated systems and manual processes that cannot keep pace with the scale of today's private markets. Clearwater's solution directly addresses these pain points, offering a modernized operating model that reduces errors, accelerates workflows, and enhances transparency.

Early adopters of the new capabilities have already reported measurable improvements, including faster processing times, fewer operational mistakes, and stronger preparedness for regulatory examinations. These results highlight the potential of Clearwater's platform to transform how institutions manage private credit and alternative assets. With institutional allocations projected to increase by another 40 percent over the next three years, the demand for scalable, compliant, and efficient solutions is only expected to intensify.
