Fund of Funds and LP Services

Fund of funds investing offers diversification and access to top-tier managers, but it is also a strategy that comes with significant operational challenges.

The vast amount of data that must be processed, reconciled, and reported – across multiple underlying funds, each with its own reporting cycles, valuation methods, and fee structures – requires more than a standard administrative approach.

That’s where we come in. With specialist teams, purpose-built technology, and a proven track record in supporting your peers, we understand the unique demands and complexities you face – and can apply this rich insight and experience directly to your funds.

Plus, with our end-to-end data management solution, Aztec Xtract, we can help you overcome the challenges associated with managing large volumes of unstandardised GP data – providing you with reliable structured, and decision-ready data that empowers you to act with speed and confidence.
