Fund Administration

 

Royal Bank of Canada Global Private Banking's fund administration service combines leading edge technology with professional expertise. The accurate and detailed information we provide helps you manage your complex and changing business requirements. We offer a full suite of quality services that enhance your image while freeing you from cumbersome and costly administrative functions. With the proven capacity and flexibility to deliver high quality services for any size fund, we offer a truly integrated service proposition that can migrate across fund accounting, administration, international banking, global custody, securities lending, investment analytics and (from RBC Capital Markets’s team) alternative asset structuring. These facilities can be jurisdiction-specific or span the globe through RBC’s worldwide capabilities.

Our fund administration service can be broken down into five key areas:

  • Fund accounting
  • Registrar and transfer agency
  • Financial accounting
  • Reporting and client services
  • Compliance

In addition, we can provide assistance with administrative and registered office secretarial duties that are essential when setting up an investment fund company or fund management company.

Relationships

We understand that client service, which we regard as one of our key strengths, is paramount in terms of timeliness, accuracy, flexibility and responsiveness. While technology is a vital component of any servicing arrangement, we know that fund management remains a relationship business.

At Royal Bank of Canada Global Private Banking, it has always been about listening to clients and understanding their business needs rather than trying to guess what they want, or worse still, attempting to shoehorn them into a pre-existing service template. Instead, we provide a dedicated relationship manager to ensure a one-person, one-face relationship.

You can enjoy the comfort of knowing that the people you deal with understand your business. Our aim is to understand your vision, so we can add value to your business — and build a relationship based on trust.

Expertise

Our global service network extends around the world, including the Far East, Canada, the Caribbean and the Channel Islands. We are well positioned to help you implement your strategy and planning. We can work with you and your advisors to establish your fund in any one of a number of jurisdictions. When it comes to fund administration, we have the global resources to service your needs.

The solutions we build will be tailored to your fund’s operational requirements, no matter how complex or sophisticated. We can provide as much or as little of your fund administration as you require.

Experienced professionals knowledgeable in their field and well versed in the regulatory and operational requirements of funds will support you. Our team services a vast client base including large pension plans and mutual funds, insurance companies, financial institutions, corporations, governments and their investment managers throughout the world.
