Indus Valley Partners ("IVP"), a premier global provider of software and technology solutions to the world’s most sophisticated investment managers backed by PPC Enterprises (“PPC”), a specialist middle-market private equity firm and minority investor in IVP, announced today that it has agreed to acquire IntegriDATA, a leader in alternative investment software solutions. Terms of the acquisition were not otherwise disclosed.
Founded in 2002 and headquartered in New York, IntegriDATA helps over 80+ alternative asset managers including hedge funds, private equity firms and fund administrators, service more than $2 trillion of AUM using its software solutions to improve operational efficiency and reduce risk. IntegriDATA specializes in expense allocation, payment automation, and collateral management solutions.
The acquisition of IntegriDATA further strengthens IVP’s asset management offering, positioning the IVP Group as a leading player in asset management technology, software and managed service solutions. Combined with IntegriDATA, IVP has over $5.5 trillion of AUM managed using its technology.

It will also allow funds to confidently scale their AUM and number of funds or vehicles, while providing a transparent process for regulators and investors to review.
Gurvinder Singh, Founder & Chief Executive Officer of IVP, said, “Alternatives managers continue to seek solutions that can increase their efficiency and control while lowering operational costs. Combining IVP's and IntegriDATA’s cloud platforms creates a category leader in software for the alternatives industry. When coupled with IVP’s “digital first” managed services platform, public and private markets managers are enabled to confidently scale their AUM, asset and capital pool complexity.”
