According to a Preqin Special Report on service providers, more than 30% of GPs switch administrators every year. This highlights the importance of selecting the right team from the beginning.
To help guide you in your search, here are five must-have characteristics for a modern fund administrator.
Accountability – They provide technology and support that anticipates investor expectations and helps GPs actively strengthen partnerships with LPs.
Structure – They help GPs adapt to a world of data ubiquity by structuring, securing, and aggregating data in a platform that serves as a single source of truth.
Trustworthiness – They enhance controls for GPs by automating workflows and enabling visibility and approval rights that reduce errors.
Efficiency – They enable GPs to scale operations by streamlining their reporting to satisfy the world’s largest institutional LPs.
Tech enablement – They deliver administration via purpose-built technology that unites GPs and LPs around a shared record of their partnership.
Of course, any administrator can claim to have these characteristics and capabilities. It’s important to ask the right questions as you evaluate potential partners – and know what to look for in their answers.
