FINANCIAL SECTOR

MUTUAL FUND INDUSTRY

Victor Buck Services has continuously enhanced its service offering to the investment management community. Based in Luxembourg, home of the largest service hub for cross border funds, we have developed a range of solutions which we call Fund Distribution Services. Whether your organization is an Asset Manager, or alternatively active in asset service or fund distribution, our service offering is truly global and will drive efficiency in the distribution of fund related information and documentation. We support UCITS cross border funds and domestic funds in diverse regions such as Europe, Asia and the US.

Investor Correspondence

Victor Buck Services offers a plug and play framework for the composition and distribution of Transfer Agency related documentation such as Contract Notes and Statements. Inbound data formatting, language, translation, distribution (paper, fax or electronic), and localized printing & mail solutions are part of the complete industry package.

Fund Prospectus

The constantly changing regulatory landscape in Europe forces Asset Managers to consider the best approach for maintaining and updating static and dynamic data in order to produce simplified and full fund prospectuses in different languages. UCITS 4 will add another level of complexity with the introduction of the Key Information document and a possible grandfathering period for the simplified prospectus in various distribution markets. Victor Buck Services has recently introduced a ground breaking service which greatly streamlines the prospectus update process with a full audit log, distribution support per market and multi-language capabilities.

Factsheets

Fund performance factsheets are an essential marketing tool for Asset Managers to promote their product in different markets. The emphasis is on accurate data and up-to-date information which is easy to read. Victor Buck Services has won the confidence of large fund promoters who have fully outsourced the factsheet process to our organization. We can handle multiple inbound data formats, different layouts and languages.

Annual fund Reports

Mutual Funds need to publish annual and semi-annual reports for all markets where their funds are registered for sale. This is a very time sensitive process where translations and legal disclaimers per country add an additional layer of complexity. We have extensive experience in the project management of annual fund report production. Our team of project managers will offer services ranging from the setting of project milestones, to data composition, translations and electronic or physical distribution of the reports.

Fund Data Information

Fund Service centres distribute a whole range of reports on a daily basis to the key stakeholders in the fund value chain (i.e. custodians, distributors, transfer agents and data & media vendors). We have released a suite of applications which enable our clients to drive fund information distribution within a secure framework. Full audit trail and automated update of distribution lists are just a few features of the Victor Buck Services data processing and distribution platform. Data to Data and Data to document applications are both supported on a case by case basis.

Print Management

Some of the roots of Victor Buck Services come from the world of commercial printing. Proud of this heritage and coupled with our service approach, we have built a highly effective print management service for documents as diverse as business cards, forms, annual reports or generic marketing information. In addition, Victor Buck Services offers onsite print facility management services. Full time professionals will meet short term printing requirements whilst being based on your premises.

Information Capture Services

Mutual Fund Industries are faced with the issue and challenge of, not only keeping client records for long periods of time, but also having this information available at their fingertips when they need it. A large part of these documents are paper based and do not exist in electronic format. Victor Buck Services has recently launched its inbound digitalization of documents with powerful indexing features. Mutual Fund Industries can outsource their scanning and indexing of critical client records to Victor Buck Services. The indexing process can be considered at the beginning of the client value chain or at the end of the process – digitalizing the archiving process. Our services can be extended to incoming third party supplier invoices.
