Our Advisory Services
Fund Board Governance
Advisory on fund board composition, independent director roles, committee structure, meeting cadence and decision documentation — creating the oversight layer that protects all stakeholders.
LP Reporting Framework
Investor reporting design — quarterly reports, capital account statements, NAV notices, material event notifications — structured to meet LP expectations and satisfy fund documentation obligations.
Mandate Compliance Monitoring
Ongoing oversight of investment activity against mandate parameters — concentration limits, permitted instruments, geographic restrictions — with breach identification and escalation protocols.
Valuation Governance
Oversight of the valuation process for illiquid and private assets — ensuring independence, consistency and documentation standards that satisfy auditors and investors.
Conflict of Interest Management
Conflict identification, disclosure framework, recusal procedures and related-party transaction oversight — documented and consistently applied across all fund governance decisions.
SPV Oversight Framework
For fund structures using multiple SPVs, we design the oversight framework covering each vehicle — board representation, reporting to the master fund, compliance monitoring and wind-down triggers.
Built for Real Outcomes
Fund governance failures are almost always failures of process, not intent. The manager wanted to do the right thing — but had no documented framework for deciding what the right thing was.
We design governance frameworks that make the right decision the natural decision — by documenting the process, the authority and the oversight before any problem arises.
