Wealth & Finance International - January 2017

Wealth & Finance International 18 Fund Solutions for Fund Managers ere at Host Capital, we offer Fund hosting services across a multitude of asset classes and sectors, with each fund benefitting from a robust and efficient approach to fund and risk management. Using the best available technology, together with the knowledge, skill and experience of industry professionals, we bring together the best ingredients and framework to optimise the customer outcome for our clients’ investors. Through the careful selection of our product partners we structure, deliver, launch, host and then operate tailored investment funds under a wide range of delivery vehicles and regulatory frameworks. Our clients are typically institutions or fund managers but we also service private and retail clients via professional advisers. With regulatory bodies ever widening the regulatory framework and so increasing the compliance burden, it has never been a more appro- priate time to consider using independent Man Co services. For many fund managers, it no longer makes commercial sense to operate its own Man Co when this function can be quickly outsourced to a specialist provider. Even investors are now expecting independent oversight of the fund management function (something which has been in place for some time within the investment trust world). Providing AIFM services to Real Estate fund managers is of partic- ular interest to Host Capital. It takes a firm with internal real estate experience to be able to provide clients with often the fast turnaround required to support real estate transactions and/or development oppor- tunities. We are delighted and proud to be voted best Best Independent AIFM Real Estate 2016 and would like to thank all our clients for their loyal support.
