Fund administration services

We offer comprehensive administrative support to help you launch your fund.​

Our local experts manage Know Your Client (KYC) and anti-money laundering (AML) requirements for your investors around the world, coordinated centrally by your dedicated Vistra team. 

Vistra Fund Management S.A. (“VFM”) is our Luxembourg-based third party authorised to act as AIFM to private equity, real estate, infrastructure, fund of funds and private debt alternative investment funds. VFM has a proven track record to manage and administer AIFs across strategies, sizes, and life-cycles.

Our depositary services operate in three jurisdictions: the Netherlands, Luxembourg and the UK. As depositary, we monitor your assets according to local laws and integrate the depositary function with the rest of your global fund administration.​

As well as maintaining your underlying books and records as part of our accounting services, we can prepare locally compliant financial statements.​

We can accurately assess your fund’s needs, help determine the extent of your reporting obligations, and will prepare and submit compliant reports on your behalf. 

Not only is FATCA compliance a major undertaking, but any mistakes can prove costly. Our team of FATCA and CRS reporting specialists makes the process easy for you, assessing your requirements and ensuring full compliance at every level. 

Our corporate governance experts can provide regular support in preparing for, attending and providing evidential follow-up for board and committee meetings.  ​

We'll advise you on the most appropriate capital structure for every stage of your business lifecycle. We can advise, draft, negotiate and complete the legal debt or equity documentation to suit the situation. 

Whether that involves receiving or making debt or equity investments into businesses, effecting a management buyout, buying, selling or merging a business, or entering into a joint venture with another company, our corporate lawyers can help advise and support you. ​

We have dedicated legal and regulatory-change teams working around the globe, closely tracking and interpreting regulations day-by-day, who fully understand the risk and impact changes may have on business activity. 

We have deep experience in winding down operations in dozens of countries, and we can help you navigate the legal and tax-entity termination rules of virtually any jurisdiction.

We perform accounting for real estate, private equity, hedge funds and fund of funds including services such as day-to-day accounting, management reporting, consolidation services, NAV calculation per fund guidelines, and financial statements preparation. 

Our services have been developed specifically for investors, including funds of funds, institutional investors and family offices. We provide the tools, transparency and reporting you need to manage complex and diversified portfolios of funds and managed accounts. ​

We can provide comprehensive technological infrastructure and people to help you reduce operational risks, and to ensure your data is processed accurately and efficiently. Our services include automating post-trade activities, from trade entry through market data updates.

We have teams of experts who can manage your global payments - calculate your funds and send you a simple breakdown in a funds request. We'll make all payments in the right currency at the right time to settle client liabilities, and send you management information showing how your funds were dispersed.
