Company profile
researched Aug 2026Formidium (also referenced as Formidium Corp. and formerly Sudrania Fund Services Corp) is a fund administration and financial technology firm headquartered in Downers Grove, Illinois. It serves venture capital, private equity, hedge, digital asset, SPV, real estate and multi-strategy funds with two service lines: Fund Services (fund administration, tax, compliance and corporate services) and ManCo Services (accounting and bookkeeping, tax, compliance and corporate services for regulated and unregulated management companies).
Fund administration work covers fund accounting and investment record keeping, three-way trade and position reconciliation, expense accruals, NAV calculation including management fees, performance fees, carry and waterfalls, investor onboarding with AML/KYC, capital calls and distributions, shareholder registers, treasury and cash management, and automated quarterly and annual financial statement preparation with audit support. Tax services, led by licensed CPAs, include US federal returns (1065, 1120, 1120-S), K-1 and K-3 schedules, state returns, withholding and 1099 filings. Compliance offerings span AML officer roles, FATCA/CRS reporting, Blue Sky and Form D filings, while corporate services cover fund and entity formation (including SPVs, co-invests and sidecars), secretarial and registered office services, and board and investor meeting support.
Business model
Formidium acts as an outsourced administrator and operations provider to fund managers and their management companies, delivering services on top of proprietary software rather than third-party off-the-shelf systems. Client engagements span the fund lifecycle, from formation and investor onboarding through periodic NAV and investor reporting, tax filings and year-end audit support, with cross-sell between fund-level and management-company-level services.
Traction
The company reports more than $34 billion in assets under administration, 2,200+ funds and entities, 700+ fund managers worldwide, 25+ jurisdictions, 320+ professionals and seven global offices. Earlier disclosures show growth over time: $28B+ AUA, 600+ clients and 1,700+ funds as of a May 2025 press release, and $31B+ AUA with 650+ clients and 1,800+ entities in a later company description.
Latest developments
In February 2025 Formidium launched the CryptoTax360.io portal for digital asset accounting and tax reporting. Formidium UK Ltd. acquired the assets of UK-based Praxonomy Ltd., adding the Boardlogic cloud board management platform to its corporate services portfolio. In 2026 the firm expanded into Europe with senior hires, worked with law firm gunnercooke on planned acquisitions of fund management companies in Liechtenstein and Luxembourg, extended AI-driven tax reporting in Seamless for Schedule K-1, Form 1065 and Form 1120 production, and collected several industry awards.
