We bring real expertise to real accounting

Our accounting services team consists of industry experts who understand every aspect of the alternative fund lifecycle and are dedicated to ensuring that you and your fund can respond quickly to shifting conditions in the alternative investment landscape.

Our business philosophy sees technology as vital to providing our clients with the best possible service, but not as the entire solution. We don’t offer completely automated cookie-cutter services, nor do we do believe that one size fits all. Our experienced team is on hand to create bespoke, value-driven solutions for our real estate fund clients – and only then do we deploy the technological tools to deliver the services our clients need with maximum efficiency.

For over 15 years, our team’s expertise and the tailored accounting and administrative services we provide have delivered results for a wide range of alternative investment fund clients, especially in the private equity, real estate and infrastructure markets, including the European operations of major international investment groups. Here’s what they say:

“By choosing KPMG Luxembourg, we knew we were choosing a large, international global network. We are working with a team of local experts who create global-minded solutions.”
