Baron Funds made the following comment about Clearwater Analytics Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:CWAN) in its Q3 2022 investor letter:

“Shares of Clearwater Analytics Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:CWAN), a leading provider of software for investment accounting and reporting, contributed to performance. The company’s second quarter earnings demonstrated strong underlying business trends. Management also announced the strategic acquisition of investment management software platform JUMP Technology that will help Clearwater expand its European presence and broaden its product set to cover more of the full end-to-end lifecycle for investment managers. The business is being negatively impacted in the near term by a reduction in its clients’ assets under management (due most notably to rising interest rates), but management is taking proactive measures to mitigate the impact going forward. We retain long-term conviction in Clearwater due to its competitively advantaged product offering, a solid compounding growth profile, and strong profitability.”
