Fund administration services

Scalable and holistic fund administration

The primary focus for investment fund managers is to deliver returns to your investors. But keeping on top of your fund’s administration, arduous accounting and reporting pressures whilst ensuring compliance can often shift your focus away from adding value and keeping your investors happy.

You’re also facing more challenges than ever with the need for more complex data and security measures, running lean operations teams and responding to increasing regulatory pressures. Maintaining these functions in-house is a challenge and a significant drain on your resources. Considering outsourcing to a provider that can meet your growing needs and manage your administration and reporting requirements may be your answer.

Our 4,000 experts are present in 18 fund hubs around the world and can help you overcome these challenges, providing end-to-end fund services across the full lifecycle of your fund(s). Our team can support managers of all sizes, those just starting out or established managers with multiple funds across multiple jurisdictions. We’re here to support you with your fund administration, accounting and financial and performance reporting needs. Our track record means we can be nimble, flexible and bespoke, freeing you up to focus on your core role of executing your fund’s investment strategy.
