Overview

In a traditional warehouse fulfillment operation, maintaining adequate inventories of mutual fund prospectuses and supplements can be an uphill challenge. Trade volumes fluctuate and compliance documents constantly change. And the delay of obtaining prospectuses from outside fund companies can literally put your investor communication delivery at a standstill. Not to mention, the SEC's looming Summary Prospectus creates a whole new set of challenges - and opportunities - for electronic compliance document management.

NewRiver Virtual Document Warehouse ensures you have the latest SEC-filed mutual fund documents always "in stock."  We offer a complete database of print-ready, PDF format prospectus and supplement documents updated daily and sourced directly from EDGAR. It's an automated inventory management approach with compliance built in. And NewRiver's Service Oriented Architecture enables loose coupling with your in-house information systems so there are no security concerns over lost or stolen files provided to a third-party vendor. 

To reduce fulfillment costs by 40-50%, you can integrate the prospectus with the trade confirmation to enhance the customer experience as a single compliance mailing. And NewRiver's service provides meta data to your in-house fulfillment operations to help you eliminate redundant mailings should investors trade out of and back into a fund within 30 days.

Part of NewRiver's Intelligent Delivery Services suite, NewRiver Virtual Document Warehouse can be integrated with NewRiver's e-delivery capabilities to meet changing regulatory and industry practices for compliant disclosure document delivery.
