Orova Group brings together two businesses that solve the same problem from opposite ends: Orova Fund Services runs the back office for private market managers, and Orova Systems builds the platform that back office runs on.
Orova Group is a South African group built around private markets. Our people have spent more than 40 years inside fund administration — closing books, answering audit requests, filing regulatory returns — and that experience sits behind both businesses in the group.
Orova Fund Services delivers the service. Orova Systems builds the technology. Running them together means the platform is shaped by the team that uses it every day, and the service team never has to work around software that was designed somewhere else for someone else.
Both businesses are built for the market they serve: local regulation, local banking and local reporting requirements, handled natively, with the architecture and security standards expected of an international platform.
Each company stands on its own and serves clients directly. Together they cover the full picture: the administration a manager needs, and the system it is delivered on.
Every Orova Fund Services mandate is administered on Orova Private Markets. It is the first platform we deploy, the system our administrators work in, and the portal investors log into — built by Orova Systems and adopted group-wide rather than bought off the shelf.
Orova Private Markets covers fund administration, accounting, capital activity, investor reporting and portfolio monitoring in one system.
Administration teams work directly in the platform, so capital calls, NAVs, distributions and investor records all come from one source of truth.
Managers get live fund and portfolio views; investors get statements, capital notices and documents in their own secure portal.
New client onboarding starts on Orova Private Markets. Other systems are integrated around it, not in place of it.
What administrators need next is built by the same group, so platform development follows real mandate requirements.
Managers who run their own back office can license Orova Private Markets from Orova Systems without the administration service.
Both businesses are run by people who have carried the reporting deadlines themselves, which is why the service and the software agree on how the work is actually done.
Shared technology keeps the cost of institutional-grade administration within reach of emerging managers, without asking them to look smaller than they are.
South African regulation, banking and reporting are handled natively, with cross-jurisdictional structures supported where funds need them.
