Tax Managed Services

In the asset management sector, the various compliance obligations applicable to an investment fund can present significant challenges and resources requirements for investment managers. Managing multiple service providers, disparate data sources, and manual processes often results in inefficiencies and increased risk exposure.

From a tax perspective the obligations arise across three different levels - fund level, investor level, and investment level.

Understanding the full range of requirements and opportunities is fundamental to the ongoing operation of the fund.

Introducing KPMG Fund HUB

Recognising these challenges, our Fund HUB offers a comprehensive solution tailored to address the specific needs of funds and their asset managers. By centralising all tax compliance services into a single platform, our Fund HUB streamlines processes and eliminates the complexities associated with managing multiple vendors.

Powered by advanced technology, including Power BI dashboards and reporting, Fund HUB provides clients with real-time visibility into workflow status and actions. This transparency enables informed decision-making and reduces time required from the investment manager.

By simplifying processes and reducing administrative burdens, Fund HUB empowers asset managers firms to focus on core business activities while ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements.
