We support fund managers through our expert teams in 86 jurisdictions worldwide

Under the European Alternative Investment Fund Manager Directive (AIFMD), a fund set up in or marketed to the EU must appoint an AIFM, also known as a ManCo, to provide comprehensive portfolio and risk management services.

We are licensed to provide external AIFM services to funds through client-centric structures. This includes the necessary portfolio and risk management, with our experts establishing the risk profile for each AIF and ensuring that you meet all regulatory requirements.

We also support your distribution and marketing activities, and provide Annex IV reporting along with other ancillary services, so you can maximise your ability to reach EU-based investors. 

Whether it’s staying compliant with the full raft of regulations, providing corporate accounting solutions, or helping you to identify new opportunities, we offer the complete package when it comes to your asset servicing needs. 

We are authorised to act as an AIFMD depositary. Our multilingual and experienced teams provide streamlined depositary services that help you to ensure your structures are compliant so that investor protection is ensured.

We provide ongoing cash flow monitoring to verify that cash is properly booked and to identify any inconsistent movements. We perform all mandatory due diligence and asset ownership verifications on an ongoing basis, maintaining an up-to-date record of shareholder agreements and fund assets.

We also determine the accuracy of AIF income distribution, oversee appropriate operating procedures, support compliance with investment restrictions and oversee the adequate valuation of units and shares. 

We help you to set up funds and other entities from the correct financial, legal, and pricing perspective to minimise risk and optimise governance and control.

We take care of fund administration so that you can focus on your core business – executing fund strategy.

Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs) play a crucial role in the smooth operation of funds, whether in terms of streamlining finances, managing risk, or easing asset transfer. Sub-fund SPVs, including HoldCos and BidCos, serve a specific purpose for your fund and it is therefore vital that they are set up expertly. This is becoming increasingly difficult as regulation becomes more far-reaching and complex, especially when multiple jurisdictions are involved.

At TMF Group, we have extensive experience in providing SPV services to thousands of fund managers globally. From establishing the SPV entity, to day-to-day SPV management and reporting, we are experts in optimising the corporate operations of sub-fund SPVs and other entities, allowing you to focus on your core investing activities.

We handle the full range of tax compliance services and regulatory reporting, including the preparation and filing of CIT, VAT declarations, FATCA, CRS, and MDR compliance. Our expert teams are constantly monitoring the fast-changing regulatory landscape and can help you to stay ahead of the curve with new regimes, such as DAC6 and the increasing focus on ESG factors.

We bring together proprietary and industry leading software solutions to enable us to deliver the full scope of fund administration services, supporting you and your investors.  

Beginning with the creation of entities and onboarding new investors, through accounting and reporting, and ending with the successful wind-down of each fund or vehicle, TMF Group leverages a connected global technology landscape to increase service quality and efficiency.
