The PEF Services Difference
Tailored solutions. Personal service.
We know private equity funds and we understand they are not all the same. We know that smaller private equity funds have all the same administrative responsibilities as a large fund, but significantly less resources. We tailor our processes and services to the individual client and their specific needs. Regardless of the scope of each engagement, our goal remains the same -- to provide our customers with the best support, so they can focus on increasing the value of their fund.
How we work
We meet with prospective clients to help determine which procedures and services will help them achieve their business objectives. We seek to obtain an understanding of their specific needs, concerns and questions. We work with our clients to ensure that we plan the most efficient, cost-effective approach for meeting their needs and addressing their concerns. Before beginning any work, PEF Services LLC prepares an engagement letter outlining the services, scope, limitations, anticipated fees, billing arrangements and all other important terms of the engagement to ensure that each party clearly understands its responsibilities.
A comprehensive review
When we join your team, you can be assured that we always provide a comprehensive review of a client's legal and financial files. We review your fund’s files for consistency and the use of industry best practices. Items we review include, but are not limited to:
- Limited partnership and management company agreements
- Limited partner financials and support schedules
- Accounting and cash management systems
- Safeguarding of assets plan
- Reporting calendar
- Prior distributions
- Prior tax filings
- SBA reports filed and prior exams
