For emerging managers and small funds, the question of when to hire a fund administrator often arises. Many think it's best to wait until their AUM hits a certain threshold, but in reality, bringing in a fund administrator early can be a game-changer.
Here are a few key moments to consider hiring a fund administrator:
* When You're Launching Your Fund Setting up a solid operational foundation is critical for growth. A good fund administrator ensures your accounting, reporting, and investor communications are streamlined and professional from day one.
* When You Start Accepting External Capital Investor confidence is built on transparency and accuracy. An independent administrator brings credibility to your processes and gives investors peace of mind.
* When You Realize Your Time Is Better Spent Elsewhere If managing books, NAV calculations, and compliance are eating up time you could spend fundraising or managing investments, it’s time to delegate. Partnering with a fund administrator lets you focus on your strengths.
Hiring a fund administrator isn’t just about managing back-office tasks. It’s about enabling growth, building trust, and ensuring your fund operates at institutional standards from the start.
