Subscription and redemption accounts
Subscription and redemption accounts are specialized bank accounts that are used by hedge funds to manage investor subscriptions and redemptions. These accounts are often established and maintained with the help of a hedge fund administrator or a custodian bank. A reserve account can also be opened in order to hold funds in reserve for various purposes such as meeting redemption requests and paying expenses or regulatory fees.
Custodial accounts
In order to manage the assets and investments of high-net-worth individuals, institutional investors, and pension funds, hedge funds require a reliable and secure way to store and manage these assets. FundBank can provide custodial accounts to hold the assets and investments providing secure storage and safekeeping, as well as accounting and reporting services.
Operating accounts
For hedge funds, managing the day-to-day cash flows of their operations is crucial to their success. FundBank can provide operating accounts for managing the daily cash flows of a hedge fund, such as paying salaries, expenses, and fees. These accounts provide basic banking services such as checking and savings accounts, wire transfers and online banking.
Escrow accounts
When a fund is subject to specific conditions or events, such as a merger, acquisition, or settlement, it is crucial to have a reliable and secure way to hold these funds. FundBank can set up escrow accounts used to hold funds that are subject to any one of these types of events.
One primary function of escrow accounts in the funds industry is their role in managing mergers, acquisitions, or other significant transactions. They act as neutral custodians, holding assets, securities, or funds until predetermined conditions are met, providing assurance to all parties involved that the transaction will be executed fairly and in adherence to the agreed-upon terms. In addition to the following escrow transactions, FundBank also covers:
- asset sales/divestments
- acquisition financing
- pending IPO
- corporate restructuring
- private equity and hedge fund capital raising
- segregated collateral accounts
- project finance
- real estate sales and leaseback
- royalty payments
- patent or copyright licensing.
