AIFMD and UCITS Management Company Solutions

We partner with investment managers to deliver tailored management company services, overseeing key management functions for each fund.

In today’s evolving regulatory and investment landscape, engaging an independent Management Company (ManCo) is more than a trend—it’s a prudent, forward-thinking strategy. Atlas’s third-party ManCo solutions empower our fund manager and institutional investors clients through a cost-efficient, scalable, fully compliant framework, allowing them to focus on investment performance and maximising returns.

Tailored ManCo Solutions to Suit Your Strategy

Atlas offers both ManCo platform and standalone ManCo services, designed to meet the specific needs of each client. Our ManCo platform is a ready-made, cost-effective fund structure providing fast, streamlined market entry. For those requiring greater flexibility and control, our standalone ManCo services offer a fully dedicated, bespoke, governance and compliance framework. As the appointed management company, we assume responsibility for all primary management functions, ensuring robust oversight and operational excellence. Backed by deep expertise in UCITS and AIFMD compliance, our global Regulated Fund Solutions team stays ahead of regulatory developments, offering funds a competitive advantage in today’s complex investment environment.
