"Fund Custody admirably fills a gap in the material available for practitioners and students of investment management. A lively and clearly written overview of the industry with a great deal of day-to-day practical detail. Ideal supplementary reading to help students in their transition from academic study to the world of work." --Alastair Milne, Loughborough University, UK

"David Loader provides profound insights into investment funds management. He describes in detail the different structures and institutions and elaborates on the necessary processes that need to be performed. In times of increasing regulatory pressures and accelerating technological changes his work offers valuable knowledge not only for professionals in the financial services industry but for every investor as well." --Marco Weiss, Frankfurt University, Germany

Fund Custody and Administration provides an overall perspective of investment funds without limiting its analysis to specific fund structures, as other books do. Since governance and oversight of investment funds are now major regulatory requirements, administrators and custodians must place greater emphasis on the custody and safekeeping of fund assets, on the independent and robust valuation of the assets, and on collateral management. By focusing on both the asset transactions made by the investment manager for the portfolio and on the transactions in the shares or units of the fund itself, it gives readers insights about the essential elements of investment fund management and administration, regardless of their geographical backgrounds.
