Inside Addepar is a monthly round-up of Addepar platform updates, research insights and client, partner and company news. 

In July, we’re sharing the latest market moves in our Q2 2023 Secondary Market Pricing Scorecard and introducing new product updates, which include scheduling for daily reports and customizable charts in Navigator. The Addepar Research team published a new report about elevating investment memos and enhancing performance. Read on to learn more.

Product Updates

Schedule daily reports

Clients can now use a single schedule to run daily reports, rather than a separate schedule for each day of the week. The daily report feature adds a “Daily” option to the report scheduler, so you can easily run reports every day without manual workarounds.

Navigator: Customize chart colors

Navigator, Addepar’s portfolio projection tool, allows an investment manager to understand what a portfolio might look like in the future based on expected returns and cash flows. Now, users can customize Navigator chart colors to their preferred specifications to match their firm’s branding and align with their other Addepar reports.

Marketplace

*Marketplace is a digital investment platform built for Addepar clients that offers a professionally curated menu of investment opportunities and solutions across private markets. 

Our private company desk recently published the latest Secondary Market Scorecard covering insights from Q2. In the report, you'll find commentary on current market conditions across the secondary market, late-stage private funding and the evolving IPO landscape. 

  • The secondary market for venture-backed companies may have found its bottom with moderately increasing activity at reset price levels. 

  • Late-stage capital invested, down significantly from prior highs, showed signs of forming a floor. 

  • Conditions and investor sentiment both seem to suggest further increases in activity during the second half of the year. 

Marketplace is offered through Addepar’s affiliate broker-dealer, Acervus Securities, member FINRA/SIPC. To learn more about the private market capabilities in Marketplace or activity across the secondary market, contact placements@acervussecurities.com

Research & Insights

Investment memos are a critical part of most investment processes. In fact, 97% of the professional investors we surveyed use memos to assess new opportunities, yet there’s practically no published research on best practices for writing and using memos given their largely confidential nature. By building on client surveys and case studies, this Addepar Research report shares new methods to improve investment memos and enhance performance.
