Investor portal RFP checklist

Use this investor portal RFP checklist to evaluate document access, LP reporting, permissions, branding, audit logs, security and implementation requirements.

An investor portal RFP should test whether the portal supports investor communication, reporting delivery, document governance and operational control after launch.

Checklist areas

  • Investor access and roles
    Ask how LPs, GPs, advisers, internal users and external stakeholders receive access, and how permissions are reviewed over time.
  • Document publication controls
    Check approval steps, versioning, watermarking, expiry, download controls, folder structure and audit history for published documents.
  • Reporting delivery
    Confirm how quarterly reports, capital statements, notices, dashboards and supporting commentary are prepared, approved and released.
  • Branding and experience
    Review tenant branding, white labelling, investor navigation, mobile usability and whether the portal feels trustworthy for external users.
  • Security and audit evidence
    Evaluate SSO, MFA, tenant isolation, access logs, export controls, data retention and evidence for procurement review.
  • Implementation and migration
    Ask how existing investor records, document archives, portal users and reporting history move into the new operating model.

    Teams should review SSO, MFA, tenant isolation, permissions, document access logs, export controls, audit history and data retention requirements.
  • Why compare portal workflows with reporting workflows?
