Scaling Across Borders: Building a Compliant Investment Platform for Global Expansion
Challenges
The firm had an existing investment management application for the American market, but expansion into India, MENA, and SEA regions required a more scalable and regulation-compliant solution. One of the key challenges was the variation in investment regulations across different countries, making it difficult to standardize the platform for compliance. The limited user base also restricted revenue opportunities, necessitating a system that could accommodate a wider investor network.
Additionally, fierce market competition meant that the company needed an edge in deal sourcing and investor-business communication. A major technical challenge was performance optimization, as the platform needed to process and analyze large volumes of investment data while ensuring seamless multi-user access.
