Frequently Asked Questions

How do sell-side firms distribute pitch books and diligence materials securely to buyers?

Egnyte lets sell-side teams distribute pitch books, CIMs, and diligence materials through role-based permissions, watermarking, and VDRs built for transaction workflows — without creating uncontrolled copies or routing files through email. GP Bullhound, an investment bank operating across eight countries, uses Egnyte to maintain visibility across active transactions, control external sharing, and surface unusual sharing behavior automatically.

How can sell-side deal teams keep materials current across multiple offices and time zones?

Egnyte centralizes deal materials with version control that keeps marketing and diligence content consistent across geographies and deal phases — so every team member accesses the same current files without manual distribution or offline copies creating version drift. Teams co-edit Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files in real time, with access scoped by role to prevent unauthorized edits to live transaction materials.

How do sell-side firms meet FINRA, SEC, and cross-border compliance requirements for deal content?

Egnyte maintains continuous electronic recordkeeping, automated permissions reporting, and comprehensive audit logs to support FINRA and SEC record retention — plus GDPR and cross-border obligations for firms operating internationally. The Riverside Company reduced compliance reporting time by 75% and saves 30 hours weekly on audit preparation after consolidating 20+ years of transaction data into Egnyte's governed platform.

How can sell-side teams use AI to search and extract data from CIMs and diligence materials?

Egnyte's secure AI lets sell-side teams instantly search, summarize, and extract structured data from CIMs, financial models, and diligence packages — while honoring existing permissions so AI-generated outputs never expose content to unauthorized deal participants. Teams can connect preferred LLMs directly to deal content, accelerating document review without moving sensitive transaction data outside Egnyte's governed environment.

How do sell-side firms detect and respond to unauthorized sharing of sensitive deal information?

Egnyte continuously monitors for unusual downloads, deletions, and external sharing activity, surfacing real-time alerts for events most likely to signal a compliance or data security risk. The Riverside Company achieved 100% visibility into sensitive data sharing after deploying Egnyte — eliminating the blind spots that had existed across legacy file servers and fragmented sharing tools across their global operations.

Does Egnyte integrate with the tools sell-side teams use to run transactions?

Yes — Egnyte connects the full sell-side stack: Microsoft 365 for real-time co-editing of Word, Excel, and PowerPoint deal materials; Power BI for financial data analysis across files; DocuSign for NDAs, engagement letters, and contracts; Salesforce for accessing transaction documents within CRM records; and AI LLMs for connecting language models directly to governed deal content.

What's a secure way to share sensitive transaction documents with counterparties without using email?

Egnyte replaces email-based document distribution with controlled link sharing that includes permission scoping, access expiration, and full audit trails — so every external recipient has only the access they need for exactly as long as they need it. Every counterparty interaction is logged, making permissions reviews and regulatory reporting straightforward without manual tracking or post-deal cleanup.
