Kicking Off the New Year

What better way to start 2018 than with a new FundCount product release?

Introducing Release 3.0.2, which offers new features and functionality to help your firm streamline business processes and manage documents more efficiently.

One of the most significant features in the release is FC Document Management. This new optional module enables users to store documents by funds or accounts, transactions, partners, instruments or investments, and contacts. Once stored, a paper clip icon will be displayed on many standard reports to provide easy access to the documents.


Welcome Aboard!

FundCount also welcomes Britney Mayala, Administrative Assistant, who will provide administrative, financial recordkeeping, secretarial and other support for the company. Britney is currently studying accounting and economics at Bridgewater State University. She is looking forward to graduating in May.

Both Mary and Britney are located in the Boston office.
