What Do We Do?
If you’ve spotted that con brio is a musical term, then the easiest way of describing what we do is that we conduct the orchestra, so to speak.
The role of the ACD in the running of a regulated investment fund is an important one. We bring together all of the parties involved in administering and running the funds we’re responsible for, making sure everything runs smoothly day-to-day and then that investors receive the outcomes they should expect.
Clearly, the investment manager of any one fund under our care has a pivotal part to play too. We see a key part of our role as giving talented investment managers the support and space they need to be creative, in the knowledge that we’re taking care of the rest.
In summary, we:
- Help investment managers to develop their plans
- Project-manage new funds to the point of launch
- Look after the day-to-day aspects of running regulated funds
- Make sure that investors are protected, by complying with FCA rules
