What HC Global Fund Services, LLC does

HC Global Fund Services, LLC is a privately held, San Francisco-headquartered fund administrator founded in 2008 that delivers full-service fund administration, tax compliance, financial statement preparation, management company services, consulting, and regulatory compliance support to alternative investment managers. The firm serves twelve distinct client segments including hedge funds, private equity, venture capital, real estate, digital assets, credit, fund of funds, single/multi-family offices, search funds, SPVs, EB-5, and lending funds, with hedge funds, private equity, and venture capital identified as primary segments. As of 2025 it administers approximately $51 billion in assets across 1,400 funds on behalf of roughly 500 clients.

The company's service platform is built on integrations with third-party financial management and data providers — Advent, CCH, Flow, Interactive Data, Investor Flow, LSEG, Nirvana, Otto, Paxus, and Yardi — supplemented by two proprietary investor-facing portals (Paxus-Connect and InvestorFlow) that provide clients with document and reporting access. Service delivery is supported by a global footprint of offices in the United States (San Francisco, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Denver, New York), Toronto, the British Virgin Islands, Mumbai and Hyderabad in India, multiple locations across the Philippines (including Makati, Mandaluyong, Pampanga, Batangas, Bacolod, Iloilo, and Davao), and Singapore, enabling 24-hours-a-day, five-days-a-week follow-the-sun coverage across six time zones with a team of approximately 750 finance professionals.

HC Global generates revenue primarily through recurring professional services fees on fund administration engagements, with pricing tied to assets under administration, fund complexity, and scope of services rather than publicly disclosed rates. The go-to-market is an enterprise field-sales motion targeting fund managers and investment advisors in the alternative investments industry through direct relationships and dedicated client relationship managers. In April 2026 the firm announced a strategic partnership with Luxembourg-based AIFM 6 Monks to extend service coverage into the European Union via the AIFM Passport, effectively adding regulatory reach into all 27 EU member markets.
