The management of alternative investments has always been a core activity of the Fondaco Group and particularly of Fondaco Lux, which boasts skills, structures and processes that enable it to better manage its 13 dedicated and customised vehicles for over four billion in assets under management.
Within the scope of the various private market strategies, primarily private equity, venture capital and private debt investments, our teams are able to offer solutions for optimal integrated portfolio management, from the study and creation of the best investment vehicle (fcp, sicav) for the implementation of the various strategies, to due diligence activities (investment, risk management, operational and legal) and the constant monitoring of the portfolio. These are all activities that enable the effective management of investments, reduction of implicit costs and mitigation of reputation and operational risks.
FUND MANAGEMENT
Fondaco takes care of the entire process of legally setting up the vehicle and gaining approval by the regulator; it also manages the launch and the coordination of the parties involved. It analyses and monitors the portfolio, including investment limits. The company makes the investments and manages the distribution of dividends.
LIQUIDITY MANAGEMENT
Fondaco analyses and coordinates the vehicle’s liquidity management activities, considering the needs and dynamics of the individual target investments (capital calls, distributions, equalisation). It also coordinates the vehicle’s closing, subscriptions and distribution, and handles the management of uninvested liquidity.
EVALUATION OF INVESTMENTS, ACCOUNTING AND REPORTING
Fondaco monitors and analyses all the performances of the target funds and the investment vehicle, also monitoring and coordinating the receipt of periodic statements and reports from the target investments. The company handles the production of the periodic reports and the annual audit.
It also coordinates the evaluation of the portfolio assets and performs an analytical review of the portfolio accounts.
