For Fund Administrators

Better fund administration. A stronger experience for your GP clients.

Quantium is fund administration software with two operating models. Run fund operations on Quantium, or keep your existing accounting systems and use Quantium to extend what your GP clients can see and do.

Two operating modelsCan coexist across mandates

Model 1

Run fund accounting on Quantium

  1. Administrator team books in Quantium
  2. General ledger, capital accounts, fees, reporting
  3. GP and LP access, by permission

Model 2

Keep your accounting system

  1. Existing GL and administrator data
  2. Mapped into Quantium
  3. GP reporting, NAV oversight, LP portal

Where this goes wrong today

A good ledger is essential, but it is no longer the whole service.

Clients expect faster answers, consistent reporting across fund structures and direct access to their information. Without a common reporting process, every mandate gets its own spreadsheets.

What Quantium brings to a fund administrator

Two outcomes, depending on how you run the books. Many administrators use both, mandate by mandate.

Model 1

Run the books on Quantium

Lower cost, faster delivery

Automate the manual tasks and business processes that legacy GLs leave to spreadsheets. A smaller team processes more funds and more data, more efficiently.

  • Fund accounting, allocations and waterfalls in one engine
  • Calls, distributions and notices from the same records
  • Fewer hand-offs between accounting and client delivery
How Model 1 works

Model 2

Keep your existing ledger

Win more enterprise business

Strengthen your client-facing technology and stand out in competitive pitches. Show prospective clients a modern, integrated solution that brings fund, investor and portfolio insights to life from your existing general ledger, with AI that answers their questions in plain English.

  • GP reporting, LP portal and cross-fund analytics on your data
  • CORE AI: clients ask questions and get answers instantly
  • No change to your underlying infrastructure
How Model 2 works

Model 1: Run accounting and investor operations on Quantium

For administrators building or modernizing an operating platform, Quantium connects fund accounting, investment and investor records, partnership allocations, capital activity, waterfalls and reporting.

Support funds with feeders, parallel vehicles, co-investment SPVs and other agreed entity structures. Configure fund and investor terms, review the resulting transactions, and prepare GP and LP reporting from the same financial record.

This is the administrator platform model, not a GP dashboard. During scoping we identify which workflows Quantium will hold as the books and records, and which remain in your other applications.

Model 2: Keep the existing ledger and improve client delivery

A large administrator may already have substantial investment in its accounting platforms and a data warehouse. Replacing those systems is not always necessary or desirable.

Quantium uses agreed accounting and investor feeds to provide normalized reporting records, GP access, cross-fund views, investor reporting and selected independent checks. Your team continues to prepare the financial records in its existing environment; Quantium helps present and explain the information to GP clients.

Connect directly to your GL and data warehouse

Quantium takes data straight from the systems you already run: GL, allocated GL and PCAP extracts from the main private markets accounting systems, a direct connection to Snowflake, and REST and OData APIs. Each source is mapped once, and later periods follow the same mapping. Nothing in your ledger or warehouse has to change.

A waterfall module for every mandate

Run each fund's distribution waterfall in Quantium, whole fund or deal by deal, with the preferred return, GP catch-up and carried interest set from the LPA. Every tier exports to Excel with its formulas, so your team and the GP can check the working line by line.

CORE AI for your GP clients

Give each GP client an AI assistant on its own fund data. Clients ask in plain English and get answers with the source records, within the permissions you set. The same data is available in Claude and ChatGPT through the Quantium MCP Server.

Serve each GP client on its own terms

Not every mandate needs the same configuration. One manager values capital account statements and an LP portal; another needs a fund-of-funds view, specialized carry calculations, portfolio metrics or reporting across several administrators.

Quantium supports modular scoping and agreed client-specific reporting configurations. Permission models and the ownership of data, reports and client communications are defined for each deployment.

Onboarding a new GP client

Start with the mandate's fund structure, accounting and investor data, reporting requirements and access model. Configure the client environment and your standard templates first, then add client-specific outputs and services.

Recurring processes stay standard without forcing every GP into the same reporting package. Per client you can vary roles and permissions, dashboards, reports, reporting dates, investor groups, entity structures and the services in scope.

Build reporting around client questions, not fixed output packs

Produce statements, investor notices, fund performance analysis and tailored dashboards from agreed data sources. Service teams can investigate fund and investor positions and prepare reports for the GP's reporting calendar.

Where the information is available, teams move from an aggregated figure to its underlying funds, investors and transactions. That improves the conversation with the GP. It does not replace the administrator's internal quality controls or the GP's approval obligations.

Buyer questions

How do fund administrators use Quantium?

Fund administrators use Quantium in two ways: as the accounting platform for their GP clients' funds, or alongside an existing ledger to improve client reporting. Either way, each GP client gets its own permissioned view of fund and investor data, an investor portal and reporting built from the same records.

Can Quantium be the administrator's fund accounting platform?

Yes. Quantium supports fund accounting, investment and investor records, partnership allocations and reporting for agreed fund structures and workflows. The books, reports and integrations maintained in Quantium are confirmed during scoping.

Can we keep our existing system of record?

Yes. Quantium can be deployed alongside an existing accounting platform, using agreed data feeds to provide client reporting, GP access and other selected capabilities.

Can different GP clients have different reporting requirements?

Yes. Reports, visibility and selected workflows are configured for the needs of each mandate, within the agreed deployment and access model.

Can we start with only a few GP clients?

Yes. An initial cohort can be scoped and validated before a broader rollout. The proposal specifies implementation, ongoing licensing and additional workstreams separately.

Does Quantium provide outsourced fund administration?

No. Quantium supplies software and, where contracted, Managed Data Operations. That is not the same as assuming the legal, accounting, NAV sign-off or regulatory duties of the fund's appointed administrator.

Show us one GP mandate and the reports it requires.

We will walk through how it would run on Quantium, under either operating model.
