Overview

Standish Management is one of the largest independent fund administrators for venture capital and private equity, providing fund accounting, capital calls and distributions, LP reporting and management-company accounting across hundreds of client firms. It is a frequent choice for managers who want an established, audit-hardened administrator rather than a software platform's service arm.
