Private Funds
Every fund, every vintage, every investor — one auditable book of record.
At scale, the cost of a weak back office isn't just operational, it's reputational. An administrator running on manual processes or siloed systems becomes a constraint you manage, not a partner you rely on. And that constraint compounds with every new vintage, every new investor, every new fund close.
Archway operates on one general ledger built for partnership accounting. Waterfall logic, capital accounts, tax reporting, audit trail. All from the same source. No reconciliation between systems. No second set of books. And a team that has worked in this business long enough to know what the close should enable, not just how to produce it.
Fund accounting infrastructure trusted by private capital managers and their limited partners.

The operational reality of running at scale.
You're managing your administrator. That's not what you hired them for.
Most fund operations reach the same wall by different paths. An administrator that couldn't scale. An internal operation built on spreadsheets and institutional knowledge that worked until it didn't. Either way, the seams show. Reconciliation gaps surface before audit. Investor-facing reports go out late or go out wrong. Your team is managing the close. Not the fund.
The harder cost is strategic. When close data arrives weeks after quarter end and has to be verified before it can be used, your books are backward-looking by definition. You're not running on information. You're running on a lag.
The platform
One ledger. Every capability runs from it.
Fund accounting runs on one general ledger. Every investor capital account, every waterfall calculation, every carried interest allocation traces back to the same source. No separate system for partnership accounting. No reconciliation between the books and the reports. One foundation.
From deal structures to fund financials. On one ledger.
Investment performance, position-level look-through, waterfall calculations, partnership accounting and configurable financial statements all run from the same general ledger. What the fund owns, what it’s worth, and how economics are allocated. Reconciled at source, not assembled after the fact. Built to handle fund of funds structures and complex, multi-layered entity hierarchies.
The LP register inside the platform. Not a separate system plugged into it.
Every investor record, every commitment, every capital account lives on the same general ledger as the fund accounting. The investor data and the fund data are not two systems that have to agree. They are one system that is always in agreement.
Integrated cash visibility across the fund operation, without a separate system to maintain.
Capital call processing, distribution management, expense allocation and cash forecasting, administered on the same platform as the fund books. No handoff between the accounting close and the cash position. The fund’s liquidity picture is current because it runs from the same source as everything else.
Carried interest at scale is an organisational risk. We administer it like one.
Grant setup, vesting, forfeitures, scenario modeling and distributions, administered on purpose-built technology with embedded controls. Every allocation is traceable. Every change is documented. Participant statements produced from the same source as the GP books. Governance isn’t a feature of the product. It’s the design principle behind it.
Role-based access, audit trails, and compliance workflows your architects can sign off.
Permission architecture configured to your institution's governance model. Complete audit trails on every transaction and system action. KYC, AML, and regulatory reporting integrated into the platform rather than bolted alongside it.
The services
Three operations we run for your fund, alongside you or instead of you.
Fund administration work can’t be fully automated — the close has to be right, the K-1s have to go out, the books have to hold. These are the three operations Archway’s fund administration team runs most often, on the same platform your fund’s books live on.

The team that runs the fund administration work
Our fund operations team knows what the close looks like from your side of the table.
Archway's fund operations team are partnership accounting and fund administration specialists. Not generalists. Not a support queue. The team understands fund operations from the inside. They know what the close requires, what the auditor expects and what an LP-facing error actually costs. And because they work across the full Archway platform, funds, family offices, complex ownership structures and carried interest programs, they bring a breadth of operational experience that a single-strategy administrator can't match. They've seen the edge cases. They know how the hard structures behave. They speak the vocabulary because they've lived inside it.
FAQ
What fund managers ask before they engage.
How is pricing structured?
Archway's fund administration fees are structured to reflect the scope of the engagement, including assets under administration, fund structure, number of funds, vintages, investors, and service model. Specific pricing is provided after an initial conversation and scoping process.
what does migration from our current provider and system look like?
Archway runs a structured onboarding process that may include historical data migration, fund document review, waterfall configuration, and parallel close before go-live. Your team has visibility throughout the process, with clear milestones, validation steps, and a target go-live plan defined during onboarding.
Can our team run the platform, or does Archway?
You have options. Your team can run fund operations on the platform, Archway can provide outsourced fund administration services, or the engagement can be structured as a hybrid model. The model changes how the work is divided. The platform does not change.
How does aggregation work across the different custodians my clients use?
Archway supports integrated feeds from major banks, prime brokers, and clearing firms where available. Private investments, alternatives, and other assets without automated feeds can be supported through file-based, document-based, or manual workflows depending on the engagement scope.
How does the white-labeled investor portal work?
The investor portal can be branded under your firm. Investors can access capital account statements, K-1s, distribution notices, and fund updates through a portal that carries your firm’s name, logo, and identity. The infrastructure is Archway’s. The investor relationships are yours.
What does the full-service model look like?
Your day-to-day team includes a dedicated controller and team of fund accountants, a relationship manager, and access to senior guidance on complex matters. We are primarily U.S.-based with support in Southeast Asia for clients that need follow-the-sun coverage. We are not an offshore model with a domestic relationship layer on top. The team members who administer your funds are an extension of your team. They are reachable, accountable, and experienced in private fund operations.
