Automate Aladdin file transfers into your investment operations workflow

Investment operations teams need reliable handoff for holdings, risk, reconciliations, and reports. Couchdrop can receive Aladdin exports, send prepared input files, and keep each transfer aligned to a clear folder structure for portfolio, account, or process ownership.

Automations help identify exceptions, preserve source files, copy outputs to downstream teams, and remove manual handling from recurring operational cycles.

• Receive Aladdin exports via SFTP workflows
• Send prepared files into Aladdin-compatible transfer paths
• Route risk, holdings, reconciliation, and report files to cloud storage
• Archive files for audit and operational lineage
• Trigger exception handling when expected files arrive or fail to arrive

Couchdrop can connect with BlackRock Aladdin Data eXchange once the relevant file delivery or collection methods have been enabled.

1. Create dedicated Couchdrop SFTP users for the relevant Aladdin transfer flows.
2. Map each user to the SharePoint, S3, Google Drive, or Azure folder used by the operations team.
3. Configure Aladdin Data eXchange and Couchdrop automations for scheduled receipt, delivery, archive, and exception handling.
