For buy-side firms running fund accounting in-house

A NAV engine that's deterministic by design — with AI doing the work around it.

aFA Agent — AI-native fund accounting

Built for capital market asset classes with liquid pricing and trading and sound intermediaries. An append-only ledger produces your fund's shadow NAV from source events, ahead of the official number from your administrator. AI maps files, flags anomalies, explains variances, and drafts commentary — but never writes a journal or a NAV figure itself. A named human on your team reviews, decides, and signs off on every result.

Who it's built for

Built for the buy side — inhouse accounting

Great for single NAV calculation, not series or equalization.

aFA Agent works alongside with your lean team, not a replacement for the fund administrator producing your official NAV. It gives you an internal, independent shadow NAV — so you know what your books say before the official number lands.

In-house shadow accounting

For investment & fund managers running a lean fund operation and accounting function

aFA Agent self-ingests files or connects via API with your intermediaries. Your operations staff review exceptions and anomalies, your fund accountant runs fees and the ledger, and your manager reviews and signs off — producing an internal estimate NAV before the official NAV arrives from your administrator.

Design principles

The NAV is deterministic. AI is advisory. Your team decides.

These principles hold across every module below — they are what your own auditor will check first.

01

Append-only

Nothing is ever overwritten. A correction is a new entry that supersedes the old; the old stays visible — which is what lets any past NAV be rebuilt to the cent.

02

Ledger is the source of truth

The double-entry ledger is authoritative. The balance sheet and P&L are views of it, not separate records to reconcile.

03

NAV is never AI-generated

Same inputs always produce the same NAV, and any past period re-runs identically. AI must never write a journal or a NAV figure.

04

AI is advisory

AI maps files, flags anomalies, explains variances, and drafts commentary. A named human on your team reviews, decides, and intervenes on any exception.

05

Human ownership

Ownership, accountability and liability always rest with a person on your team. Every automated action is reversible and logged with a named approver.

06

Built to grow with you

The data model carries the structure to support more complex funds as your needs grow, without needing to be rebuilt.

Capabilities

Everything you need to run shadow NAV in-house

From fund setup to a signed-off NAV — grouped by what each capability delivers, not how it's built.

Setup & reference data

Fund, class & investor setup

Your fund's legal structure, share classes, terms and investor register in one place. AI flags gaps against your offering document and verifies subscription and redemption records before they hit the ledger.

Instrument & counterparty data

Reference data for the securities and brokers or custodians you trade with — enriched and de-duplicated automatically, so your ledger always books against clean, current records.

Ingestion & the ledger

Automated ingestion

Broker, custodian and price files are imported and mapped automatically, in whatever format they arrive. Anything AI can't confidently map is queued as an exception for your team, not silently guessed.

Positions, pricing & the general ledger

Trades become positions with cost basis and P&L; prices and FX rates are versioned and checked for staleness; every entry lands in a double-entry, append-only ledger. AI catches duplicates, off-market trades and unusual entries before they become a problem.

Fees, expenses & accruals

Management fees, expense allocations, amortisation schedules and income accruals — calculated against your fund's actual terms and rechecked automatically each period.

NAV, reporting & controls

NAV production & reconciliation

Your shadow NAV moves through estimate, final and confirmed status with anomaly checks at every stage. Once your administrator's official NAV lands, it's reconciled automatically against your shadow number, with AI explaining what drove any variance.

Reporting pack

Balance sheet, P&L, holdings and cash-movement reports regenerate on demand, with AI-drafted commentary ready for your team's review before anything goes out.

Governance, audit trail & sandbox

Every entry, edit, AI suggestion and human approval is logged and immutable. Corrections and scenarios can be tested in a discardable copy of your fund's state before anything is posted live.

Proof, not promises

Tested against real fund structures

The 95–99% accuracy target isn't a marketing figure — it's measured against a permanent internal test suite covering the structures and mechanics real funds actually use.

Accuracy is measured as shadow NAV within 95–99% of the administrator's official NAV, produced same-day to T+2 — the standard your own reconciliation would apply.

Trust & AI governance

AI drafts. A named human on your team owns the NAV.

Because the NAV is a number your own management relies on, aFA Agent's governance model is strict: AI is never the author of a financial figure.

  • AI never writes a NAVDeterministic, rules-based calculation only. AI's role is mapping, flagging, explaining and drafting — never deciding.
  • Named human sign-offOps → accountant → manager approval workflow. Every exception, manual entry or error is intervened on and rectified by a person on your team.
  • Immutable audit trailEvery entry, edit, AI suggestion and approval is logged and retained for your records and for your own auditor's inspection.
  • Reversible by constructionNothing is overwritten. A correction is a new entry; the old one stays visible, and any past NAV can be rebuilt to the cent.
  • Sandbox before liveCorrections and scenarios are previewed in a discardable copy of the fund state before your team approves promotion to live.
  • Full source attributionAI-drafted commentary and variance explanations trace to the underlying entries — never presented as unsourced conclusions.
