Invest in the Best

As a leading fund administrator in a competitive industry, Saltgate stands out. 

As their tagline goes, Saltgate invest in the best. They believe that an investment in their people, in their systems and in their clients is an investment that is truly worth making. This frame of mind is instrumental to their level of success because clients and colleagues look for elements they align with when choosing to partner with them.

People are a priority

Saltgate believes that if someone is given the time, tools, and space to achieve greatness, they will. Saltgate’s people first proposition empowers their teams to succeed in their roles, by creating a framework that caters to differing needs and circumstances of individuals and creating a structure that works in harmony with these. Adopting an uplifting, supportive culture empowers the team to aim high and achieve more, so they consistently deliver an excellent standard of client service.

For Saltgate, ensuring their values are at the forefront of everything this do is a non-negotiable, so they’re dedicated to creating an environment where colleagues feel safe and empowered to bring their true, authentic selves to work. Colleagues have the space, trust, and accountability to reach their potential, because when people feel their best, they perform their best, hence ‘we invest in the best’. Recently, Saltgate gathered everyone from all their offices to get together for two days of team building and business updates, it was a real celebration of their culture and values, bringing all their offices together as One Saltgate. 

Innovation is an investment

Saltgate was founded on the principle of nurturing long-term partnerships with clients.  This ambition required the appetite to innovate, and it still fuels their digital transformation journey today. 

Digital transformation drives their culture of continuous self-improvement by promoting a focus on efficiency, user experience, data integrity, and security. Saltgate work to develop and implement best-in-class technology solutions across all areas of the business to ensure continued delivery of service excellence. Flexibility is a huge part of their approach. They leverage this to build long-term partnerships with clients, by providing more than just ‘off-the-shelf’ products and services. 

Their biggest achievement so far is the launch of STAR, a proprietary payment front-end system. This forms the user entry point for their transactional ecosystem by integrating with their static data platform, ERP accounting systems, and payment platform – allowing straight-through processing via their own SWIFT bureau. The launch of STAR was the first of its kind, and the result of a major project in collaboration with internal and external stakeholders across their operational jurisdictions. It lays a strong foundation for their future innovations around the payment, accounting, and reconciliation functions. It’s an exciting time for businesses with the innovation opportunities available to them, and Saltgate remains ahead of the curve ensuring that they are continually investing in the best technology.

Clients are key

Saltgate are selective about their clients and want to invest in long-term partnerships.  Their clients’ interests always come first, and they aim to service their needs seamlessly. Striving to be viewed as an extension of their clients’ teams is at the heart of what they do. They are continually working to anticipate their clients’ changing needs and to develop and tailor their offering accordingly. To maintain this level of service Saltgate works with dedication, integrity and intensity.   It’s this level of service that makes them stand out.
