Clearstream Fund Services launches Compass, a collaborative fund platform

22.10.2024
  • Clearstream Fund Services is transitioning from its existing web-based applications (Fund Compass and Provider Explorer) to the new platform Compass. 

  • Compass creates a Fund Distribution Business Place by offering a true Platform Experience for Distribution Services, moving beyond the core services and attracting fund experts. 

Distribution partners require relevant and up-to-date fund information to monitor their fund universe. Clearstream Fund Services introduces Compass, a solution designed to enhance efficiency and foster team collaboration through transparent communication. Compass is the first application that facilitates collaboration and interaction around data, creating a comprehensive fund distribution hub. 


Going forward, fund distributor clients of Clearstream Fund Services can benefit from the following key features: 

  • Get comprehensive fund information: access clear, reliable, and up-to-date data directly from the Funds and various partners. This includes regulatory documentation and data, together with performance and sustainability indicators. 

  • Connect with fund professionals: Compass provides a unique space for collaboration, allowing you to make the most of available data. 

  • Centralize your fund-related communications: access all fund-related communications in one place and collaborate seamlessly with Fund Providers.

  • Access up-to-date directory: be informed of the latest contact details of Fund Providers. 

  • Optimise your fund universe management: use Compass as a powerful tool to manage your authorized fund universe. 

  • Carry out regulatory and product specific reviews: find eligible investments based on your client relationship profile. 

Compass was developed with a focus on innovation, agility, and user experience. After a successful pilot phase, during which user feedback shaped the platform, Clearstream Fund Services is excited to open Compass to all Distribution Partners.
