Author: Daniel Faggella December 30, 2025 Duration: 17:29

Today's guest is Sandro Venturini, Executive Director at UBS Asset Management Switzerland. Sandro brings deep expertise in fund structuring, cross-border launches, and data integration for financial services. Sandro joins Emerj Editorial Director Matthew DeMello to explore how fragmented fund data creates silos in mergers and launches, and how a single source of truth enables AI to streamline compliance and reporting. Sandro also shares practical takeaways, such as using AI to anticipate stakeholder concerns from term sheets, generate draft prospectuses that slash legal fees and formation costs, and customize investor reporting to reduce manual errors across share classes. Just a quick note for our audience that the views expressed by Sandro Venturini on today's program do not reflect those of UBS or its leadership.
