Infrastructure That Delivers
Three representative mandates demonstrating how HCP builds fund infrastructure that works - on time, on budget, and audit-ready from day one.
Client details anonymised to protect confidentiality. Structure details are representative of actual mandates.
Luxembourg SLP Launch via Rented AIFM
From term sheet to operational fund in 8 days
The Challenge
A European multi-family office needed to launch a private equity co-investment vehicle for three family principals. The existing fund administrator quoted 12 weeks. The families had deal flow waiting and could not afford the delay. The structure needed to be AIFM-compliant, support multiple share classes, and be audit-ready from day one.
HCP's Approach
HCP coordinated the full infrastructure stack: jurisdiction selection (Luxembourg SLP through a rented AIFM), legal documentation (partnership agreement, subscription documents, side letters), compliance framework (AML/KYC onboarding, regulatory filings), and fund administration setup. The rented AIFM model eliminated the need for a dedicated management company, reducing both cost and timeline. All parties - legal counsel, administrator, AIFM, and custodian - were coordinated centrally through HCP.
The Outcome
The vehicle was operational in 8 business days from signed term sheet. First capital was deployed within two weeks of inception. The structure has since been used for three additional co-investments without requiring structural modifications.

CLN Structure Delivered in 6 Business Days
Custody-ready instrument for digital asset exposure
The Challenge
A Geneva-based boutique investment bank needed to offer its private banking clients exposure to a digital asset strategy through a familiar fixed-income wrapper. The bank's compliance team required a custody-ready instrument that could be held in existing portfolio management systems. Traditional securitisation providers quoted 6-8 weeks and could not accommodate the digital asset component.
HCP's Approach
HCP designed a Credit Linked Note (CLN) structure with the underlying exposure managed through a regulated digital asset fund. The CLN was issued under a Swiss framework with Luxembourg listing capability. The structure included: ISIN assignment for custody compatibility, prospectus documentation meeting the bank's compliance requirements, AML/KYC integration with the bank's existing onboarding process, and real-time NAV reporting through the Fume on-chain layer. The entire coordination - legal, listing agent, paying agent, calculation agent - was managed centrally by HCP.
The Outcome
The CLN was issued and custody-ready in 6 business days. The bank's first allocation was processed within the same week. The instrument has since been used as a template for two additional digital asset exposure products.

ADGM-to-Luxembourg Fund Migration
Restructuring a GCC-domiciled vehicle for European institutional access
The Challenge
A GCC-based asset manager had a performing private credit fund domiciled in ADGM but was unable to attract European institutional capital due to the jurisdiction's limited recognition among continental LP compliance teams. The fund needed to be restructured into a European-recognised wrapper without disrupting existing investor relationships or the underlying portfolio.
HCP's Approach
HCP designed a parallel structure: a Luxembourg SLP that would serve as the European feeder into the existing ADGM master fund. This preserved the existing investor base and portfolio while creating a compliant entry point for European LPs. The migration included: regulatory mapping between ADGM and Luxembourg frameworks, parallel governance structures with unified reporting, AML/KYC harmonisation across both jurisdictions, and a hybrid operating layer combining manual oversight with automated compliance triggers. HCP coordinated with local counsel in both Abu Dhabi and Luxembourg, the AIFM, administrator, and custodian.
The Outcome
The restructured vehicle was operational within 6 weeks. The first European LP commitment came within 30 days of launch. The existing ADGM investors experienced no disruption to their positions or reporting.
