On Thursday 1 October 2026, FE fundinfo, a global leader in investment fund data and technology with an office in Luxembourg, announced an enhancement to its Global Fund Registration (GFR) service aimed at addressing fragmentation in fund registration.

According to the company, investment managers and management companies (ManCos) will now have a single view of their fund registration lifecycle, from initial registration requests to audit, within FE fundinfo’s Nexus for Investment Managers platform. The new functionality brings global fund registration information into one live view, providing greater visibility across the registration lifecycle through a single platform.

FE fundinfo noted that registration information and updates often sit across disconnected sources, including email chains, spreadsheets and phone calls, making it harder for teams to track activity and share updates internally. The enhanced GFR service provides users with persistent access to registration information within Nexus for Investment Managers, with changes and maintenance actions tracked, auditable and reportable in one place.

FE fundinfo stated that the key capabilities of the enhanced GFR service include:

  • Manage registration amendments: request and monitor the addition or removal of sub-funds and share classes, giving users greater visibility of progress;
  • Manage registrations in new countries: request new registration of umbrella funds in additional countries and track activity within the same platform;
  • Access documents and data in-platform: information is available at every step of the registration lifecycle, giving investment managers and ManCos faster access without having to track it across different channels;
  • Track key dates: view day-specific dates, providing greater precision and tracking to help manage deadlines;
  • Support regulatory reporting and submissions: audit fund registrations through a full audit trail, status summaries and downloadable history, providing real-time visibility in one place.

FE fundinfo said these capabilities give investment managers and ManCos greater visibility of where registrations stand, what activity is coming next and the progress of tasks already in motion.

According to FE fundinfo, the enhancement builds on its existing GFR service, which already supports more than 100 GFR clients and fund registrations across over 75 jurisdictions. It also forms part of the company’s wider Nexus roadmap to create a more connected fund lifecycle. FE fundinfo said Nexus for Investment Managers connects data and workflows across the investment product lifecycle, allowing trusted product data mastered within the platform to flow into downstream workflows spanning global fund registration, regulatory document production, dissemination and distribution.

Paul Poletti-Gadd, Head of Asset Management Products at FE fundinfo, said: “Fund registration can be complex, particularly across multiple funds and jurisdictions, making clear and consistent visibility of progress critical. Our enhanced Global Fund Registration Service brings registration activity together in one place, while maintaining the expertise and relationships clients rely on from their Registration Managers. By connecting product mastering, registration, regulatory document production and dissemination, we’re bringing more of the fund lifecycle together within Nexus for Investment Managers.”

James Sudweeks, Manager, Product Management at Redwheel, added: “Having a live version of ongoing projects is really useful, and the reports make it much easier to report information to our fund board.”

FE fundinfo is rolling out the enhancement across its existing GFR client base and showcasing it to prospective investment managers and ManCos. The company reported positive initial feedback, with firms highlighting the greater detail available in task reporting and the potential to streamline internal processes, particularly how registration data and updates are communicated across teams
