Comprehensive private capital solutions

Private equity

Support the full private equity (PE) lifecycle with a service-led operating model built for partnership accounting, capital calls and distributions, carried interest, and complex waterfall calculations. We pair experienced service teams with integrated technology to keep your fund running cleanly through fundraising, deployment, and LP reporting. 

Private credit

Manage private credit fund operations with disciplined loan-level administration, complex income recognition, and the operational rigor institutional investors expect. We offer fund accounting, covenant and accrual tracking, investor reporting, and treasury coordination across your borrowers, agents, and LP base. 

Hedge funds

Meet hedge fund investor expectations with institutional-grade administration and the speed and flexibility your strategy requires. We support you with NAV calculation, profit and loss (P&L) allocation, investor accounting, incentive fee and high-water mark calculations, and reporting across strategies, instruments, and fee structures, coordinated tightly with your prime brokers, custodians, and counterparties. 

Real assets

Navigate the complexities of real assets funds at the intersection of valuations, long-duration capital, and asset-level operating data. We deliver coordinated fund accounting, partnership accounting, and waterfall processing across real estate investment trusts (REITs), joint ventures, property companies (PropCos), debt funds, and co-investment vehicles, aligned to the cadence of real estate, infrastructure, and natural resource strategies. 

Venture capital

Keep pace with venture fund administration across debut funds, multiple vintages, sidecars, and special purpose vehicles (SPVs). We provide partnership accounting, capital activity processing, portfolio company tracking, and LP reporting, delivered by a team that understands the operating rhythm of venture investing. 

Fund of funds

Oversee fund of funds platforms with precise tracking of underlying manager activity, layered cash flow management, and look-through reporting across multi-manager portfolios. We support you with capital activity oversight across your manager roster, underlying manager exposure tracking, and investor servicing with workflow automation and data aggregation through our technology-enabled service model. 

Fund services

As a leading independent provider of fund administration, we deliver comprehensive services to alternative asset managers, pairing deep operational experience with scalable technology and a dedicated client service team. 

Fund accounting and reporting 

Leverage our straight-through and exception-based processing environment to power accurate, timely partnership accounting, NAV calculations, waterfall and allocation processing, and investor-level reporting, supported by a robust control environment and the operational rigor your investors and LPs rely on. 

Investor services 

Access comprehensive investor servicing across the LP lifecycle, including onboarding, subscriptions, capital activity, AML and KYC review, and a secure digital portal, with connected workflows to the alternative investment platforms your placement partners rely on. 

Treasury services 

Execute treasury operations with discipline across cash management, capital activity oversight, and expense payment workflows, supported by multi-bank cash visibility and controlled wire workflows that protect fund assets and keep capital moving on schedule. 

Management company solutions 

Bundled or standalone, gain dedicated support for management company and GP entity operations, including financial reporting, general ledger, accounts payable, expense allocations, fee and carry calculation, payroll, and travel and expenses (T&E), so your investment team stays focused on sourcing, diligence, and value creation. 

Frequently asked questions

What makes you different from other private fund administrators? 

We pair scale with deep experience across all asset classes and a high-touch service model. Our independence keeps us aligned with your interests, our integrated technology gives your team and your LPs a single source of truth, and our client service teams know your fund, your strategy, and your investors, not just your ticket. 

Can you support a new private fund launch?

Are your operations independently audited for controls? 

Yes. Our private fund administration platform is audited annually under SOC 1 Type II standards. Reports are available to clients and prospective clients under NDA to support your LP operational due diligence and your own audit and compliance requirements.

What if I'm switching from another administrator? 

We have extensive experience managing private fund conversions across many private strategies. Our implementation team handles data migration, historical reconciliation, investor data validation, and parallel-period testing, helping establish a clean handoff with no disruption to your investors, your portfolio, or your operations. 

How do you support managers and CFOs? 

You get a dedicated team that supports your finance, operations, and investor relations functions, from quarterly close and investor reporting through audit coordination, capital activity, and ad-hoc analytics. We work hand in hand with your CFO and operations leadership to keep your fund running smoothly across every cycle. 

How do you handle tax and investor reporting for private funds? 

We manage the full investor reporting lifecycle, including partnership tax support, K-1 preparation and delivery support, capital account statements, and customized LP reporting. You get close coordination with your auditors and tax advisors throughout the year, not just at year-end.
