Global SPV management and administration services ranging from multi-domiciled sub-fund Special Purpose Vehicles to simple holding structures

Special Purpose Vehicles (SPV) play a vital role in the efficient operation of nearly all types of investment funds, whether compartmentalising finances, transferring risk or easing asset transfer. Sub-fund SPVs, including HoldCos, FinanceCos, LeaseCos and BidCos, all serve a specific purpose and must be set up expertly and diligently if they are to meet their goals. This can easily become complex, especially where several jurisdictions are involved.

As investment managers increasingly operate beyond their home territories, often with complex international investment structures, they must address new – and increasingly stringent – regulations. Stronger governance, increased oversight and more transparent reporting are some of the measures that form part of the tighter SPV regulatory framework.

SPV services from SPV set-up to SPV management and SPV liquidation

Once the SPV is set up, financed and investments made by the entity, the day-to-day SPV management and on-going servicing and reporting starts. For investment managers with an increasing number of SPVs as part of their global fund structure, this imposes a high volume of back-office work, taking time away from their core business.

At RKG Klozer Trust Ltd, we have extensive experience providing accounting, cash management and corporate services for SPVs, taking away the administrative burden for investment managers globally. We coordinate all activities linked to SPV operation.
