A fund manager's long-term success depends on the availability of a service ecosystem that supports each phase of the fund life cycle with the right mix of accounting, administration, governance, and investor services.

To succeed, they must evolve from a "fund launch" to a "fund life cycle" mentality and assemble a service and technology ecosystem capable of elevating the investor experience, enhancing operational efficiency, and laying the groundwork for cross-asset class and cross-jurisdictional agility.
