When Growth Outpaces Excel, Change Gets Harder to Control

As carry, compensation, and co-invest complexity grows, spreadsheets create more risk, more manual work, and less control. Navable brings it into one system built for alternative asset firms.

With Spreadsheets

  • Carry rules depend on spreadsheets and people
  • Participant changes force manual model rework
  • Historical decisions have to be reconstructed
  • Employees and GPs come back to Finance for answers
  • More funds and participants add to admin work

With Navable

  • Carry, compensation, and co-invest data live in one system
  • Run forfeitures, dilutions, and reallocations
  • Keep changes, records and documents connected
  • Participants can access their own compensation information directly
  • Scale carry, compensation, and co-invest without more spreadsheets

Built for Finance.
Proven in Practice.

Probably one of the more thoughtful, comprehensive software solutions we've seen built for our industry.

What Changes for Your Finance, HR and Operations Teams

The value of better carry and compensation infrastructure isn't more software. It's less senior attention spent keeping the process under control.

    Spend less time checking, reconciling, and maintaining carry and compensation data.

  • Easier Reviews & Year-End

    Keep history and documents easy to trace for year-end review.

  • More Capacity as You Grow

    Manage more funds, participants, and co-invest programs without adding admin work.
