NGT Exception Framework

Check Everything. Open Only What Is Worth Your Time.

Every control runs on every investment vehicle, every day. Fewer false positives, with the context and the root cause attached. An exception opens only where a check fails, with the evidence attached, and a person decides.

The challenge

More Alerts Is Not More Control

Investment operations run on exceptions: oversight, risk management, compliance, due diligence, across a very broad range of use cases in the middle and back office. The challenge is systems that raise so many alerts that teams spend more time investigating than they did before automation. Years of automating exceptions for our clients went into the NGT Exception Framework, our answer to the exception fatigue other solutions create.

Six tools

The Exception Framework NGT Tools

Called by NGT Skills, from detection to audit trail. Each step is a tool, so every use case opens, groups and closes its exceptions the same way.

Detection

Triggers events on signals across the whole selected scope: signals from NGT Analytics Tools, external signals or your own. Statistical anomaly detection and deterministic time-series analytics decide what is worth an event.

Similarity and grouping

Creates Points of Attention: events that belong to the same incident are grouped with their signals and data, so the context and the root cause are clear. Clustering and pattern recognition find similar events across time and across the scope, whether they happened before or are happening now on other entities.

Call to action

Each Point of Attention triggers an investigation report, delivered through the task management built into SPARK. A clear call to action, with all the context you need to start the investigation.

Investigation

AI drafts tailored, opinionated investigation tasks with everything you need to navigate the root causes. Assign, classify and comment as in a state-of-the-art task manager, or work with investigation agents that reason over the deterministic signals, events, Points of Attention and reports, so the context they give you is one you can trust.

Sign-off

A person decides, with the evidence in front of them, and every approval is recorded against the case. Connectors take the outcome to the outside world: email, instant messaging or your own systems.

Audit trail

Every check, case and decision logged and replayable, for you and for your regulator.

Inside a plugin

Deterministic Inputs. Exceptions You Can Trust.

This is the framework's strength. Every exception starts from a number an NGT Tool calculated, never from the model: the skill picks the check, the tool calculates, the framework opens the case. AI reasons over results you can trust, and no exception is closed without a person.

An NGT Skill owns the procedure

NAV oversight, fee checks, private markets controls: the skill knows which checks to run, in which order, and what to escalate.

NGT Analytics Tools calculate

Sub-fund evolution, price anomalies, independent price valuation, fees. Same inputs, same number, every time: the input every exception is built on.

The framework opens the case

Only where a check fails, with the evidence attached, routed to its owner and closed by a person.

See it run

Every control, every quarter. Only the findings reach a person.

01 · The quarter

Every report, notice and NAV pack of the quarter.

Kestrel Private Equity Fund: 20 portfolio companies, 14 LPs, and a NAV to sign off.

SPARK on private markets oversight: the Private Markets Oversight plugin reads every report and notice, checks every valuation, ties out capital calls and distributions, recomputes fees and carry, gathers the findings on a Canvas, and a person decides each one
