The Platform

Aggregation, accounting and reporting. Built as one system, not three.

When the three functions run on the same general ledger, the reconciliation problem disappears. Not because it's been solved — because it was never created. Every figure on every report traces to the journal entry that produced it. One source. No exceptions.

The problem we're solving

The seams between systems are what your team reconciles before the books can close.

The reporting system was bought from one vendor. The accounting system was bought from another. The aggregation tool came from a third. Each one owns a copy of the data. Each one exports to the next. The close runs through the reconciliation gaps between them and every month, someone on your team spends a week proving the numbers tie.

That work isn't a feature of the stack. It's the cost of three systems pretending to be one. The principal feels it. The reporting timeline carries it. And every new entity, new fund vintage or new asset class makes it worse.

For private fund managers, the same problem takes a different form. The fund administrator runs one set of books. The GP runs another. The waterfall lives in a spreadsheet maintained alongside the fund agreement, not derived from it. K-1s get produced from a separate system that doesn't talk to either. The persona is different. The reconciliation problem is identical.

The architectural decision that resolves it isn't a better integration. It's the absence of one.

What runs on the platform

One general ledger. Every capability runs from it.

The Archway platform was built as one system, not assembled from components. Every capability below runs from the same general ledger, the same book of record, the same source. No reconciliation between modules. No data crossing a boundary to get from one function to the next.

01・Accounting & General Ledger

The foundation everything else runs from.

A single general ledger that serves as both the investment book of record and the accounting book of record simultaneously. Not two systems reconciled periodically. The same ledger seen from two angles. Every position, every journal entry, every entity in the family or fund structure is maintained on one source. IBOR and ABOR unified at the architectural level, not reconciled after the fact. Every figure on every report, every capital account, every financial statement traces back to a journal entry on this ledger. The audit trail is complete by design, not assembled when someone asks for it.

02・Investment & Portfolio Reporting

Every position consolidated. Every report drawn from the books.

Public and private markets, liquid and illiquid assets, held-away and managed positions aggregated to the general ledger and reconciled at source. Look-through entity reporting across trusts, LLCs and partnerships without a separate consolidation step. Performance reporting, attribution and asset allocation analysis drawn from the same ledger that closes the books. The investment picture is always current because it runs from the same source as the accounting.

03・Cash & Expense Management

Every payment is on the same ledger as the books.

Invoice intake, approval routing, vendor verification, fraud controls, payment execution and reconciliation administered on the same platform as the accounting and reporting functions. Every payment posts to the general ledger the moment it clears. No separate payments system to reconcile against. The cash position is current because it runs from the same source as everything else.

04・Fund Administration & Partnership Accounting

Partnership accounting built for the structural complexity of private funds.

Waterfall calculations posted as journal entries derived from the fund agreement. Capital account balances are the same source as the financial statements. K-1 summaries produced from the same ledger that closed the books. Multi-vintage architecture handled from inception. The fund agreement defines the terms. The platform runs from them.

05・Carried Interest Administration

Carried interest at scale is an organizational risk. We administer it like one.

Grant setup, vesting, forfeitures, scenario modeling and distributions administered on purpose-built technology with embedded governance controls. Every allocation is traceable. Every change is documented. Participant statements produced from the same source as the GP books. Scenario modeling in a sandbox environment before any change is published. The full carried interest lifecycle from grant to distribution with the audit trail and controls that institutional governance requires.

06・Client Portal & Delivery

The book of record, delivered to the client under your brand.

A fully branded client portal, your name, your colors, your domain that draws from the same general ledger as the accounting. No sync. No separate schedule. No reconciliation between what the books hold and what the client sees. Configurable per client and per family member. Approval workflows built in. Archway invisible by design.

Who runs on Archway

One platform. Four operational realities. The same book of record runs all of them.

Single family offices, multi-family offices, private banks and private fund managers. Every audience runs on the same general ledger, the same book of record, the same architecture. How each segment uses it is specific to them.

For the principal household. Every entity, every asset, one auditable book of record.

Look-through reporting across trusts, LLCs and family partnerships. Direct feeds from every custodian, bank and account the household uses. Investment reporting, financial reporting and cash and expense management on one ledger — so the principal's complete picture is always current, always traceable, always defensible.

FAQ's

What technical and operational evaluators ask about the Archway Platform.

How does Archway compare to the competition?

Archway is differentiated by its ledger-based architecture and operating services model. Rather than treating aggregation, accounting, and reporting as separate functions, Archway brings them together on the same book of record. For complex family offices, wealth advisory firms, private banks, and private fund managers, this creates a more connected foundation for accounting, investing, operations, reporting, and client delivery.

How is pricing structured?

Fixed annual pricing is based on scope, including entities, services, and users, not assets under management.

Can we run our own operations, or does Archway run them?

You have options. Your team can operate the technology directly, Archway's team can manage the software and process through outsourced services, or the engagement can be structured as a hybrid model. Each model runs on the same platform and book of record. Transitioning between models does not require a data migration.

What does implementation look like?

Scope and timeline are defined during the due diligence process and vary by complexity. Archway's implementation team manages the process. Projects can range from weeks to months, and specific timelines are provided after a joint scoping exercise.

What entity structures does the platform support?

The platform supports trusts, LLCs, partnerships, foundations, private funds, fund of funds, mutual funds, pooled cash vehicles, omnibuses, and individuals inside the same general ledger, each with its own entity hierarchy and chart of accounts.

How does aggregation work?

Archway supports direct feeds from major U.S. and international banks, prime brokers, and clearing firms — plus the regional and local banks other platforms don't cover. Transaction-level detail for managed assets, automated ingestion for held-away assets, and manual controls where data only arrives quarterly.

How does the platform handle the IBOR and ABOR?

Archway's platform is the source for both the investment book of record and the accounting book of record. They are not two separate systems. It is the same foundational data viewed from two angles. Every reported number traces back to the journal entry that produced it, giving teams a clear connection between investment activity, accounting records, and reporting outputs.
