Overview
CSC provides fund, corporate, capital-markets, and business-administration services across international jurisdictions. Its fund-services capabilities were materially expanded through the acquisition of Intertrust Group, creating broader coverage across private equity, private debt, real estate, infrastructure, and other alternative structures.
The firm supports fund accounting, investor services, special-purpose vehicles, corporate governance, depositary, regulatory, and cross-border entity requirements. Its wider corporate-services infrastructure can be useful where investment structures contain numerous holding companies, financing entities, and jurisdiction-specific obligations. Within The Economy Wiki, the institution is connected to the Fund Administration & Operational Services category.
