Amit Pilowsky, co-founder and managing partner of Israel-based Key1 Capital, said most asset managers were having to rely on “outdated” accounting software. 

“What happens is that there are many mistakes, the reporting is not always timely,” Pilowksy said. 

FundGuard has “solved an acute problem for an enormous industry. It’s not a nice-to-have,” he said.

FundGuard has offices in London, Toronto, Tel Aviv, New York and Boston.

AI has grown at a tremendously fast pace and has developed into a cornerstone of the industry.

The release of ChatGPT in 2022 has led to AI and GenAI being implemented into almost every industry, from healthcare and education to gaming and accounting.

Research and analyst company GlobalData estimates the total AI market will be worth $383.3bn by 2030, implying a 21% compound annual growth rate between 2022 and 2030.
