Request: Day in the life of Mutual Funds Administrator

Thanks for posting. I'm guessing it's a matter of different titles or roles among different companies, but I found a description on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fund_administration</a">Wikipedia that seemed closest to what I was told by someone at the company:

"Fund administration is the name given to the set of activities that are carried out in support of the process of running a collective investment scheme, whether the scheme is a traditional mutual fund, a hedge fund, pension fund, unit trust, or something in between.

Managers of funds often choose to outsource some or all of these activities to external specialist companies, such as a fund's custodian bank. These companies are often known as fund administrators.

These administrative activities may include the following administrative functions, which may include "fund accounting" functions. Some of these items may be specific to fund operations in the US, and some pertain only whether the fund is an SEC-registered fund:

• Calculation of the net asset value ("NAV"), including the calculation of the fund's income and expense accruals and the pricing of securities at current market value, is a core administrator task, because it is the price at which investors buy and sell shares in the fund.1 This involves trade capture; security valuation (for highly illiquid securities, considerations include whether counterparty valuations are available and/or appropriate and whether the securities can be valued by independent vendors); reconciliations; expense calculation; and NAV calculation and reporting.1 The accurate and timely calculation of NAV by the administrator is vital.12

• Preparation of semi-annual and annual reports to shareholders

• Maintenance and filing of the fund's financial books and records as the fund accountant, including reconcilement of holdings with custody and broker records

• Payment of fund expenses

• Settlement of daily purchases and sales of securities, ensuring collection of dividends and interests"

...and so on.

What title would you give someone in this role at your company?
