JPMorgan Asset Management has installed new technology which it said will “transform” how hedge funds manage their cash.

The asset manager has installed a short-term money management solution which links with its existing trading platform to give customers a single automated workflow for investing and monitoring idle cash.

The solution has been developed in partnership with technology platform provider Clearwater Analytics (CWAN).

JPMorgan said that hedge funds can now maximise idle cash by automatically investing in a diversified range of money market funds and reduce concentration risk by spreading cash across multiple managers, custodians, and currencies.

The bank explained that hedge funds will be able to improve liquidity visibility through real-time data and automated withdrawal and deposit capabilities as well as eliminate manual treasury work, freeing teams to focus on trading and strategy.

The launch of the new service underscores a broader industry shift toward data-driven, automated treasury management as investors seek better control of cash and risk, said JPMorgan.

“Our collaboration with CWAN reflects our shared commitment to delivering institutional-grade solutions that simplify complexity,” said Paul Przybylski, global head of product strategy and Morgan Money at JPMorgan Asset Management. “This integration gives hedge funds a straightforward way to enhance yield, diversification, and liquidity oversight—without adding operational burden.”

In June, JPMorgan introduced new functionality for fixed income investors on its self-directed investing platform.

The updates aim to simplify the process of researching and investing in corporate bonds, treasuries and similar products.

Key enhancements include a yield comparison table enabling quick yield comparisons across fixed income products with timeframe filtering options.

The platform now features a streamlined trade ticket designed to execute transactions more efficiently with fewer steps and immediate yield visibility.
