Secondaries Funds: From Distribution Notices Reconciled Manually to

The Bottom Line Up Front

For secondaries funds, the integrity of the capital lifecycle decides how confidently leadership can make the next allocation. Most teams in Secondaries Funds know the feeling: plenty of activity, but no single reference line for where the capital actually sits. Capital operations have quietly become the place where secondaries funds lose evenings and weekends to spreadsheets.

It works because Sovereign ZX is grounded in your real transactions — every figure traces back to an event in the ledger.
