These Carta services include selling consultative access to our team of Carta fund administration accountants who support funds reporting needs. We offer a tech-focused investor portal to both the fund GPs/Admins and also their investors/LPs.

You will also work closely with new PE funds as they navigate the process of forming a new fund. That process involves advising them on best practices and referring them to additional vendors which may include fund formation lawyers and audit professionals.
