Private Markets

Alternative Banking for Complex Needs.

Private Markets demand constant focus, from investor expectations to managing capital calls, distributions, and portfolio performance. Amid these pressures, the mechanics of moving money should never be a concern.

VFX provides multi-currency accounts, cross-border payment infrastructure, and specialist FX risk support designed for the realities of private markets. Private market companies can collect, hold, and move capital across jurisdictions efficiently, with systems designed to reduce delays and support clarity.

Structured accounts and clear processes help you maintain oversight of liquidity, supporting smoother cross-border transactions.

The Clients We Serve

Investment Managers, Fund Administrators and Trust Companies

General partners, fund administrators, and fiduciary providers operate in a landscape where precision, speed, and compliance are non-negotiable. Managing capital calls, distributions, and cross-border investment flows requires seamless execution.

VFX provides a platform tailored to fund and fiduciary operations, with dedicated multi-currency accounts at its core. Payments are supported by approval workflows that mirror fund mandates, ensuring every transaction meets governance requirements. Settlement is fast yet controlled, giving administrators confidence in efficient, compliant, and fully auditable processes.

Alongside advanced technology, clients at VFX are supported by a dedicated team that understands the nuances of private market operations.

Family Offices and Foundations

Family offices and charitable foundations often operate across multiple jurisdictions and currencies, requiring careful oversight of investments, distributions, and treasury management. Complexity and regulatory obligations can make international finance challenging.

VFX offers these institutions a streamlined, multi-currency platform and a suite of FX solutions. Clients can manage global portfolios efficiently, implement hedging strategies to optimise currency exposures, and access consolidated reporting for a complete view of their international finances.

Our dedicated account managers work closely with each family office or foundation, providing strategic guidance, real-time insights, and bespoke reporting to ensure transparency, security, and operational efficiency.
