Fund accounting is under pressure from every direction: rising volumes, private markets pulling in instruments the ledger was never designed for, tightening regulatory requirements and sustained fee compression. Covering a new asset class or fund type has often meant adding another system, particularly when extending into private markets, and each one arrives with its own reconciliation.

Fund Accounting / ABOR
Two books, one set of events. Fund accounting for asset servicers and asset managers. Your accounting book and your investment book are not reconciled to each other, because neither is a copy of the other. Both are derived from the same events, with different valuation and timing rules applied on top.
The Industry Challenge
How FINBOURNE helps
Every basis from one dataset. Define a NAV type for each basis you report on, each with its own valuation and accounting treatment, and produce all of them from the same source transactions. Official NAV, financial reporting and tax run from one dataset rather than parallel ledgers kept in step by reconciliation.
Unified coverage across public and private markets
End-to-end support for all investment instruments, from listed equities and fixed income to private credit, private equity, and real assets, delivered through a single, integrated platform.
Movements engine: every NAV change, explained
Decompose a NAV into the movements that produced it: trades, corporate actions, revaluations, fees, FX. When an investor or an auditor asks what drove the change, the answer is the arithmetic rather than a reconstruction.
The NAV as published, and the NAV as it should have been
A price is restated three weeks after a NAV was struck. You need four things: the NAV as published, the NAV as it would have been struck with the corrected price, the difference, and both defensible to an auditor and an investor. FINBOURNE produces all four from one system.
Multi-basis accounting
Configurable NAV types (official NAV, management accounts, IFRS, local GAAP, tax, performance fee) let one set of source transactions produce multiple reporting datasets, each with its own accounting and valuation rules. No second load, no second ledger, nothing to reconcile between them.

Questions we hear from fund accounting teams
How do I produce NAVs on multiple bases from one set of source transactions, instead of maintaining parallel ledgers?
Configure the accounting treatment and valuation rules for each reporting basis you need (official NAV, IFRS, local GAAP, tax, performance fee). All are produced from one set of source transactions with no second load or second ledger.
When a price is restated after a NAV is struck, how do I show both the published NAV and the corrected NAV from the same system?
Bitemporal history preserves both the NAV as published (with the price known at the time) and the NAV as it would have been with the corrected price. Both are produced from the same data, with the difference calculated automatically.
What is the difference between a standalone fund accounting platform and fund accounting that shares its data with the rest of the investment stack?
A standalone platform does accounting well but in isolation: getting data out to compliance, reporting, or portfolio management requires extraction and reconciliation. FINBOURNE’s fund accounting shares its event store and data foundation with IBOR, PMS, compliance, and reporting natively.
How are firms handling fund accounting for private market instruments alongside their listed book without running separate systems?
Private credit, private equity, and real asset instruments are handled natively within the same fund accounting platform as listed holdings. Lifecycle event modelling for drawdowns, repayments, capital calls, and amendments runs on the same engine.
How do I decompose a NAV movement into the trades, corporate actions, fees, and revaluations that produced it, rather than just the closing number?
The movements engine breaks every NAV change into its constituent parts. When an investor or auditor asks what drove the movement, the answer is the arithmetic that produced it, not a reconstruction.
