Case study

From BVI incubator fund launch to administration on Tychi

An emerging manager wanted to build a track record with a small, cost-conscious vehicle. Unefund coordinated the launch of a BVI incubator fund, and Fundtec then administered it on Tychi from the first subscription, with investor onboarding, NAV and reporting in place before go-live.

The challenge

The manager had a strategy and early investors but no operational infrastructure. It needed a structure that was quick to set up and proportionate to its size, with a clear path to a larger fund later.

It also needed investor onboarding, KYC and AML checks, accounting and reporting ready before the first subscription, without hiring an operations team.

How we approached it

  1. Structuring and jurisdiction

    Unefund compared options and supported the choice of a BVI incubator fund, coordinating with fund counsel on the offering documents and registration.

  2. Service providers and banking

    Unefund referred providers suited to the fund’s size and coordinated bank and broker onboarding requirements.

  3. Administration setup on Tychi

    Fundtec configured the fund’s chart of accounts, fee terms, share class and investor records on Tychi and set up data feeds from the broker.

  4. Go-live

    Investor onboarding and KYC were completed, the first subscriptions were processed and the fund moved into a regular NAV and reporting cycle.
