Written by Gresham | 28 April 2025

LONDON UK, 28th April, 2025 – Global leader in enterprise data automation for the financial services industry, Gresham, today announces a major enhancement to its reconciliation solution, Control for Investment Management, previously sold under the Electra brand.


With over 100 active clients, the Control for Investment Management application has become the gold standard for investment managers, hedge funds, and other buy-side organisations seeking to efficiently reconcile their cash, positions, and transactions. The latest update, already in production use with early adopters, retains the solution’s patented, intelligent workflow, which has established it as a market leader, and introduces a user-friendly web interface that simplifies daily oversight of critical data.

Control for Investment Management is also tightly integrated with Gresham’s market-leading Pulse Data solution, which aggregates vast amounts of investment data feeds for reconciliation, connecting more than 6,000 unique data feeds from over 1,600 global sources. This single-vendor approach helps reduce complexity, provides a seamless experience for day-to-day operational tasks, speeds up the exception management process, and substantially reduces costs for investment managers.

Ian Manocha, CEO of Gresham, commented, “Moving Control for Investment Management to a web-based solution is an important step forward and gives our clients faster access, more flexibility, and greater control. It’s the first of a series of exciting new product releases we’re rolling out to meet the evolving needs of financial institutions. It’s a strong sign of the investment we are making in our product roadmap and suite of cloud offerings.”

Alongside the new web interface for operations teams, Control for Investment Management now provides a robust application programming interface (API), enabling clients to automate the extraction and updating of records. Additionally, embedded documentation makes it straightforward for users to learn and adopt new features, while Gresham’s specialist onboarding team provides dedicated support for large-scale asset managers and hedge funds.

Steve Weinburg, Product Manager, added, “Clients worldwide have relied on this tool for essential reconciliation tasks. By introducing a web-based interface and expanding our APIs, we’re creating stronger links between Control for Investment Management and other Gresham solutions, enabling data and insights from one product to enhance the capabilities of another. This approach boosts daily efficiency, while offering a more integrated, unified experience for investment managers around the globe.”

Gresham showcased the new interface and its capabilities at a dedicated user group event on April 15th, including a live demonstration and best-practice guidance. Attendees learnt how the platform’s enhanced features support daily operations while reducing the administrative burden on in-house IT teams.
