Data Sovereignty
The principle that data is subject to the laws and governance of the jurisdiction where it is physically stored. For fund managers, data sovereignty means ensuring that sensitive investment data — deal analysis, LP information, portfolio company financials — cannot be compelled to be disclosed by foreign governments.
Context
Data sovereignty has become a primary consideration for fund managers since the US CLOUD Act (2018) established that US authorities can compel US-headquartered cloud providers to hand over data regardless of where it is stored. Self-hosted infrastructure addresses this by removing third-party cloud providers from the equation.
