- Ask for a feed. FIS Digital Data Exchange has an API or SFTP channel that is partner-only or client-side. Ask the fund manager or Northern Trust whether statements and notices can be delivered to you or your service provider through it. The guide to partner-only portal access explains how these arrangements work.
- Use email notices. Notification emails are not confirmed for these products, but most portals send them. The guide to automating capital call notices shows how to build on them.
- Check the terms. Read the portal's terms before automating anything, and get written permission where the terms require it.
