About
Juniper Square is a purpose-built fund operations platform designed for General Partners (GPs) in private markets, including private equity, venture capital, commercial real estate, private credit, and fund of funds. Founded in 2014, the platform connects market-leading technology, data, and fund administration services to help investment managers fundraise efficiently, streamline back-office operations, and deliver a world-class Limited Partner (LP) experience. The platform's core technology suite includes an AI-powered CRM for investor relations, secure data rooms, automated investor onboarding with integrated AML/KYC compliance, distribution payments management, a branded LP portal, and comprehensive reporting and insights dashboards. GPs can also leverage APIs and third-party integrations—including Nasdaq eVestment—to centralize data and eliminate information silos across their organization. JunieAI, Juniper Square's embedded AI layer, accelerates workflows by turning raw fund data into actionable insights, automating DDQ responses, and improving the accuracy and timeliness of fund administration tasks. The platform also supports managed fund close services, waterfall modeling, fund accounting, and treasury services through a dedicated fund administration team. Juniper Square is ideal for investment managers looking to scale operations, reduce manual overhead, improve LP satisfaction, and maintain regulatory compliance—all from a single connected platform. It serves firms of all sizes, from emerging managers to large institutional GPs.
