Solutions for Fund Managers/Fund Administrators

As a Fund Manager or Fund Administrator, investors count on you to accurately estimate the true intrinsic worth of securities held in their portfolio. But, it is not enough to establish precise fair value pricing guidelines. You must also adhere to—and demonstrate—strict compliance guidelines.

What’s more, funds with international securities face the threat of short-term traders who profit from stale pricing due to time differences between marketplaces in different countries. These market timers can generate excess trading activity, resulting in higher turnover, additional transaction costs, and lower fund returns.

With extensive intellectual capital and years of expertise, ITG can enable you to meet your obligations to fairly price the securities within your funds—and to reduce the occurrence and costs of market timing. Our models are designed to help:

  • minimize market timing
  • facilitate the management of regulatory pressures
  • improve and refine your fair value processes through extensive back testing

Fund Administrators are also faced with continued competition with the prime brokerage community. As such, you need to provide innovative services that go beyond the administrative tasks of book keeping and net asset value (NAV) calculation. We can help you build a value-added offering through portfolio compliance monitoring services that go beyond what many funds have the resources or infrastructure to handle on their own.
