Join us for our live roundtable on Choosing the Right Fund Admin
Wed, Mar 26, 2025, 3:00 PM - 4:00 PM
Choosing the right fund administrator is one of your critical decisions in building your firm’s infrastructure. Getting it wrong means operational headaches, compliance nightmares, and an admin partner who slows you down rather than supports your growth. From delayed reporting to mismanaged LP communications, the wrong choice can create friction where you need efficiency.
To cut through the noise, we’ve brought together leaders of finance functions from VC firms across Europe—spanning different fund sizes, life stages, and strategies—to share their experiences and perspectives. Their insights provide a nuanced view of what truly matters when selecting a fund admin, helping you avoid costly mistakes and ensuring your firm is set up for long-term success.
