Build the shared place the market was missing.
ACP iLink brought documents, pricing, timelines, and accountability into one working view for a market that had been coordinating the work across spreadsheets, email, and disconnected data rooms.
The workflow existed. The shared view did not.
Investors, sponsors, brokers, and service providers needed the same documents, dates, pricing, and next actions. Each participant had part of the picture. No one had a reliable view of the whole. I was close enough to the market to see where the work broke down, then led the product from the first wireframe through production and continued use.
Four decisions made the workflow easier to trust and use.
Show the whole portfolio
Give investors one chronological view of events and obligations across every bond they managed, rather than making them reconstruct the picture deal by deal.
Make the next owner obvious
Use notifications and shared timelines to show who needed to act, reduce chasing, and keep the deal moving.
Make documents easier to reach
Provide document access through the product and API without per-file fees. Customers began asking other providers to give them the same access.
Put pricing in context
Move pricing out of static files and into an interactive history that showed each bond alongside the market around it.
What people returned for showed us what to build next.
The clearest signals were visible in use: the dates people checked, the documents they wanted through the API, and the parts of the shared timeline that reduced follow-up. Those patterns shaped what we built next.
