Vector AIS handles the full back office for alternative investment fund managers, from fund one onward. Whether you're launching your first fund or scaling an established one, we handle the operations so you can stay focused on deploying capital.
Book a call with our teamLaunching and managing a fund for the first time comes with a different set of challenges. You need more than a system. You need a team that can guide, execute, and help you build the right foundation from day one.
You're not just managing a fund. You're building a firm.
From capital calls and distributions to investor reporting and audit cycles, we manage the workflows behind the scenes so nothing slips — especially when you're doing this for the first time.
You're not expected to have everything figured out. We work alongside you to structure processes, execute accurately, and ensure your fund operates the way LPs expect from day one.
Valence gives you a clean, scalable system from day one so you're not stitching together spreadsheets or replacing your entire setup when you launch Fund II.
Where first-time managers get stuck
Without a defined operating structure from day one, simple questions become complicated — and your LPs notice. Vector builds the right workflows before confusion has a chance to set in.
First impressions with LPs are set through your reports. Inconsistent formats, late deliverables, or missing data signals operational immaturity — even when the fund itself is performing well.
Capital calls and distributions are high-stakes, time-sensitive operations. Without a disciplined process behind them, errors compound fast and LP relationships take the hit.
Managers who patch together Fund I on spreadsheets spend the first year of Fund II fixing infrastructure instead of deploying capital. Vector gives you a scalable foundation from the start.
Cheaper administrators often mean slower turnarounds, more errors, and more time your team spends cleaning up work that should have been right the first time. The fee savings disappear fast when you're fixing capital call mistakes or re-running reports the week before an audit.
Software-first models look great in a demo. But when you have a demanding LP, a non-standard transaction, or your first audit, there's no one on the other end who actually knows your fund. Technology without expertise isn't fund administration. It's a portal.
Institutional and sophisticated LPs expect clean reports, fast responses, and accurate capital account statements. If you're fielding LP questions that your administrator should be handling, or worse, covering for their mistakes. That's a signal it's time to switch.
The real test of any fund administrator is what happens when auditors show up. If your administrator can't support the audit process, can't produce clean workpapers, or leaves your team scrambling to fill in the gaps, that's not a one-time problem, it's a structural one.
Valence is Vector's proprietary fund accounting platform, built by fund professionals for private market fund managers. It modernizes core fund accounting with secure GP and LP portals for reporting, capital activity, and investor communications, purpose-built to support Vector's service-first model, not replace the expertise behind it.

My favorite thing about the Vector team comes down to one word: Vibes. It's a team that not only has prestigious talent, but also an amazing attitude. It's a group of folks that I think is really invested in the relationship with managers.
I can't speak highly enough of Vector and the work the team has done. They have been incredibly responsive and direct when we need help and are beyond proactive in taking care of work that needs to be done.
Whether you're preparing to launch your first fund or looking to offload a back office that's outgrown your team, book a 30-minute call and we'll walk through exactly how Vector would work for your situation.
