Global mandates01
Markets, assets and operating cash
One mandate, coordinated across its operating perimeter.
A cross-border appointment connects eligible markets and assets to account structures, settlement routes, currencies, counterparties and reporting rights.
Private-market asset administration
Controlled records, document evidence and capital-event administration for eligible non-listed holdings within the contracted scope.
Treasury & liquidity structure
Operational cash accounts, currency flows and approval controls aligned with settlement obligations and authorised movements.
Funds & asset owners02
Vehicles, beneficiaries and governance
An operating model shaped by the legal owner.
The control architecture differs for a segregated portfolio, a collective vehicle and a long-horizon asset owner. The appointment must reflect who owns, governs and instructs.
Segregated asset-owner mandate
Accounts, authorities, eligible assets and reporting arranged around a single institutional owner and its documented investment mandate.
Collective investment vehicle
Custody and administration interfaces defined around the vehicle, valuation cycle, investor activity and applicable oversight model.
Pension, endowment & governance mandate
Long-horizon custody, cash and evidence designed for boards, trustees, committees and their appointed advisers.
Information & control03
Evidence, analysis and delivery
Information governed like an institutional asset.
The same mandate that controls assets and cash should define what information is produced, who may receive it and how exceptions are evidenced.
Mandate reporting & evidence
Position, cash, transaction and settlement reporting linked to reconciled records, defined calendars and retained control evidence.
Performance & risk data views
Agreed performance, attribution and risk datasets prepared from available source records and configured reference data.
Secure data delivery
Portal, scheduled files and controlled reporting outputs aligned with user permissions, responsibilities and the contracted service scope.
Fiduciary control04
Oversight, escrow and independent challenge
Control that remains separate from execution.
Fiduciary appointments are defined by legal capacity, independence, governing documents, escalation duties and the evidence required to support decisions.
Depositary oversight architecture
Monitoring and escalation frameworks shaped by the vehicle, applicable duties and the operational information available to the appointee.
Escrow & controlled accounts
Transaction-specific holding and release conditions documented for authorised parties, evidence, approvals and defined completion events.
Trustee & governance support
Independent review, documented challenge and governance reporting within the duties and authority established by the appointment.
Mandate design process
The relationship is defined before it is activated.
Every appointment is subject to legal, operational, jurisdictional, asset and counterparty review. Availability depends on the final agreed scope.

Institutional enquiry
Bring us the mandate, not a product code.
We begin with the legal owner, the assets, the markets and the authority to act. From there, the operating model can be defined with precision.
