Fund Administration

Many fund managers choose to outsource the fund administration function to a third party provider who can independently verify and accurately value fund assets, providing investors with an added layer of protection

An independent administrator helps fund managers stay on top of their compliance and reporting obligations while allowing fund managers to focus on the core aspects of managing their fund, such as investment selection and capital sourcing.
