A fund administrator's core product is an accurate, timely NAV and a clean audit trail behind it, across funds, currencies, and share classes that don't stay still. Most administrators still run this on spreadsheets bolted onto a generic accounting platform, which works until a fund count, an investor count, or a regulator's reporting deadline outgrows it. We build the NAV engine, investor workflows, and compliance reporting around how your operation actually administers funds.

Fixed-cost delivery, scoped up front, with source code ownership
The problem
Your NAV calculation process still running through a spreadsheet that one person understands well enough to trust?
Economic substance and regulatory filings for your offshore-domiciled funds assembled manually every reporting cycle?
Short answer
RaftLabs builds custom fund administration software, including NAV calculation and reporting automation, investor onboarding and KYC/AML workflows, capital call and distribution management, economic substance reporting for offshore entities, and multi-fund, multi-currency, multi-share-class administration. We build for fund administrators - including those serving offshore-domiciled hedge, PE, and VC funds in jurisdictions like the Cayman Islands and BVI - whose operations have outgrown spreadsheets or a generic accounting platform. A single-purpose tool covering NAV calculation and investor reporting typically runs $40K-$80K; a full platform with capital calls, economic substance reporting, and an investor portal runs $100K-$180K. Projects are fixed-cost, scoped after discovery, with source code ownership and post-launch support included.
01 Diagnosis
NAV calculation runs on a spreadsheet one person understands
NAV is the number investors trust for redemptions, performance reporting, and their own downstream accounting - which makes a spreadsheet-based calculation process a real operational risk, not just an inconvenience. When the process depends on institutional knowledge held by one or two people, growth in fund count or investor count turns a manageable workload into a bottleneck, and a single error becomes expensive to unwind. A structured NAV engine with your valuation methodology and fee/waterfall logic encoded turns a fragile manual process into a defensible, auditable one.
Economic substance filings are assembled by hand, every cycle
Offshore-domiciled funds in jurisdictions like the Cayman Islands and BVI are required to file economic substance reports demonstrating genuine local activity, and assembling the underlying data manually from disparate sources every reporting cycle is slow and error-prone. Missing or inaccurate filings create real regulatory exposure for the fund and the administrator. Software that collects the required data as a byproduct of normal operations, not a separate scramble before a deadline, keeps compliance current instead of reactive.
Investor onboarding data doesn't flow into the cap table
Subscription documents, KYC/AML verification, and accredited investor checks often happen in one system (or on paper) while the cap table and NAV allocation live in another, which means a new investor's data gets re-entered by hand and the two records can drift out of sync. Building onboarding directly into the same system as NAV and cap table management removes the re-entry step and keeps investor records and fund accounting as one source of truth.
Multiple funds, currencies, and fee structures strain a generic accounting platform
Administrators serving several fund vehicles at once - each with its own currency, share classes, and fee/waterfall structure - regularly hit the limits of generic accounting software that was built for a single entity, not a multi-fund operation with layered complexity. Working around those limits with manual adjustments and side spreadsheets is where errors creep in. A data model built around multi-fund, multi-currency, multi-share-class administration from the start removes the workarounds.
02 What we ship
NAV engines that apply your specific valuation methodology and fee/waterfall structures, producing a defensible, auditable NAV on your required calculation cycle - daily, monthly, or quarterly.
Subscription document collection, accredited investor verification, and KYC/AML checks built into the onboarding flow, feeding directly into the cap table and NAV allocation without manual re-entry.
Tracking each LP's committed, called, and distributed capital across funds and vintages, with capital call and distribution notice generation for PE/VC fund structures.
Data collection and filing-preparation workflows for economic substance reporting and other regulatory obligations, scoped to your specific offshore jurisdiction's requirements.
Data architecture built around multiple fund vehicles, currencies, and share classes as first-class concepts, not a single-fund system stretched to fit a growing operation.
Client-facing portals where investors view their position, NAV history, capital account statements, and documents under your brand, with access scoped per investor and per fund.

08 Questions
Fund administration software automates the core operational work of administering investment funds: NAV calculation and reporting, investor onboarding and KYC/AML, capital call and distribution management for PE/VC structures, and regulatory filings including economic substance reporting for offshore-domiciled entities.
Yes. NAV calculation - valuing fund assets, applying fee and waterfall structures, and producing a defensible, auditable NAV on a daily, monthly, or quarterly cycle - is the core of most requests we get in this space. We scope your specific valuation methodology during discovery.
Yes. Investor onboarding - subscription document collection, accredited investor verification, and KYC/AML checks - is commonly built as part of the same system rather than a separate parallel process, so investor data flows straight into the cap table.
Yes. Tracking each LP's committed, called, and distributed capital across multiple funds and vintages, and generating capital call and distribution notices, is a common requirement. We scope the waterfall and carried-interest logic during discovery.
A single-purpose tool covering NAV calculation and investor reporting typically runs $40,000-$80,000 and takes 14-20 weeks. A full platform with capital call management, economic substance reporting, and an investor portal runs $100,000-$180,000 over 20-30 weeks. We scope a fixed cost after discovery, before any development starts.
Yes. Offshore-domiciled entities in jurisdictions like the Cayman Islands and BVI are required to file economic substance reports. We build the data collection and filing-preparation workflow around your specific jurisdiction's requirements, scoped with your compliance team.
Yes. We build the data model around multi-fund, multi-currency, multi-share-class administration from the start, not a single-fund system stretched to fit.
Yes. A portal where investors view their position, NAV history, capital account statements, and documents under your own brand is a common addition once the core administration platform is in place.
