Permira Selects iLEVEL for Portfolio Monitoring

In addition to ensuring greater data transparency, iLEVEL’s automated data collection capabilities will help Permira reduce the administrative burden on their deal team.

“We are delighted to welcome Permira to the iLEVEL community,” said Melissa Ferraz, Vice President, EMEA Client Development of iLEVEL. “Their need to efficiently manage a large and complex portfolio within a highly collaborative culture makes them the perfect fit for the iLEVEL platform.”
