Farrer & Co advises Suntera Global on the acquisition of Khepri Limited

Farrer & Co is delighted to have acted for Suntera Global (Suntera) on its acquisition of fund administration and corporate services provider Khepri Limited (Khepri). The transaction reflects Suntera’s continuing ambitious growth strategy, designed to empower institutional clients with exceptional support across a broad and expanding range of alternative asset classes and jurisdictions. The acquisition of Khepri supports Suntera’s strategy of creating a new full-service fund administration offering in the UK, while also broadening and strengthening its existing fund administration proposition for global asset managers and complementing its well-established international network spanning nine tier-one offshore and onshore jurisdictions.

Headquartered in London, Khepri boasts a growing team of more than 35 fund servicing specialists. Licensed in the UK by the FCA and HMRC, Khepri provides a full suite of fund administration services to asset managers, including investor onboarding, hosted fund management, regulatory reporting, appointed representative and compliance consulting, as well as a broad range of corporate secretarial, bookkeeping and accounting services. Khepri services a total of £6bn in assets under management (AUM) on behalf of clients, spanning a full range of asset classes, and works predominantly with managers in the UK across venture capital, emerging private equity, and real estate.

The multidisciplinary Farrer & Co team was led by partners Anthony Turner (Corporate) and Andy Peterkin (Funds/Regulatory), supported by Beth Balkham and Amen Alonge (Corporate), Kya Fear and Edward Twigger (Funds/Regulatory), Charmaine Pollock and Iman Kouchouk (Employment) and Katjana Cleasby and Amy Bowen (Tax).  

The deal is subject to regulatory approval and is expected to complete in the second half of the year.
