Banking operations for

Private Markets

Running a fund means moving money at the moments that matter most: calling capital, closing a deal or making a distribution. Behind every one of those crucial moments sits a web of bank accounts, entities and approval chains that most banking infrastructure was never built to handle.

Cobase works with private markets firms every day, and we've built our platform around how you actually operate: multiple funds, multiple SPVs, multiple banking relationships, all needing to move in step with your investors and your deals.

A trusted partner in

Private Markets

Whether you're running a single fund or a sprawling structure of SPVs, co-investment vehicles and holding entities, Cobase gives you one place to manage banking across all of it. Less time spent wrangling portals and reconciling statements, more time spent on the deals and relationships that actually grow the fund.

Capital calls and distributions

Move money on your timeline, not your bank's

Capital calls and distributions are deadline-driven and investor-facing, there's little room for a payment run that lags behind the schedule you've already communicated to LPs.

Cobase lets you initiate and approve payments in bulk, and automate recurring capital calls and distributions across funds and vehicles. What used to be a manual payment run against a spreadsheet becomes a standardised, repeatable process, every close, every quarter, every fund.

Fund and entity structure

One view across every fund, SPV and structure you run

Private markets structures multiply fast. A single fund can sit behind a dozen SPVs, co-investment vehicles and holding entities, each with its own accounts, banks and reporting obligations.

Cobase gives you a single interface across every entity and every bank, with accounts kept clearly segregated by fund, vehicle or structure. You get the oversight of a single platform without losing the separation your structures require.

Investor-ready reporting

Keep pace with your LPs' expectations

Investors expect clarity, quickly, whether that's confirming a capital call landed, tracing a distribution, or answering a question at short notice during a review.

Cobase delivers standardised bank statements and consolidated reporting across every account, and integrates directly with your fund accounting and reporting systems. Aggregating information stops being a bottleneck and becomes something your team can turn around fast, because the data is already consistent and in one place.

Icon=smart-workflow

Control without slowing down

Approval workflows built for how funds actually make payment decisions

Payment approval in a fund rarely sits with one person. It moves through partners, finance, often external advisers, and it needs to happen without becoming a chokepoint at the exact moment a deal or a call is time-sensitive.

Cobase's role-based access and configurable approval workflows mean the right people approve the right payments, every time, with a full audit trail behind every decision. Governance and speed are no longer a trade-off.

Icon=insurance

Security and compliance, by design

Deliver to the standard your investors expect

Institutional investors run their own due diligence on the infrastructure behind their capital. Compliance isn't a nice-to-have, it's part of how you win and keep their trust.

Cobase is SOC 2 compliant, ISO 27001 certified, GDPR aligned and SWIFT CSP compliant, with every action logged and every piece of data encrypted. When an LP or auditor asks how your banking operations are controlled, the answer is already documented.

Complexity

Integration & scalability

Integrate and scale banking operations

As organisations grow, banking processes become increasingly complex and disconnected from core business systems.

Cobase integrates with ERP, accounting, PMS and other business applications to enable straight-through processing, reduce manual effort and create scalable banking operations that support growth without increasing operational complexity.
