Where we come from
Origin
Built from real industry experience
Born from financial services law and AFSL incubation, FundBase Group is grounded in the practical realities of launching and operating investment funds. We bring real-world operational experience and specialist support to help managers reduce complexity and operate with efficiency.
FundBase Group was initially established to solve an internal operational challenge: delivering fund administration and back-office support efficiently and to a high standard.
As we worked with more managers, we expanded the model into an integrated fund infrastructure platform — supported by proprietary technology — to reduce complexity, improve consistency and deliver strong value for managers and their investors.

About
Frequently Asked Questions
Who FundBase Group is, who leads it, how it is licensed and where the business came from — the questions fund managers, investors and counterparties ask when assessing a fund services partner.
1. What is FundBase Group?
FundBase Group is an Australian fund services company that provides fund managers with the infrastructure needed to launch and operate investment funds. It operates through licensed Australian entities, combining an in-house operations, compliance and administration team with a proprietary technology platform. Managers engage FundBase Group either as a complete operating partner or for individual services within a wider arrangement.
2. Who leads FundBase Group?
FundBase Group is led by founding principals Richard Mulligan and Anna Nedbaylova.
Richard brings decades of experience across investment structuring, operations and compliance. Anna leads financial management, controls and operational development. The wider team holds experience across financial services, fund operations, compliance and fund structuring.
3. Is FundBase Group licensed and regulated in Australia?
Yes. FundBase Group operates through Australian financial services licensees — FB Corp Limited (AFSL 557810) and Sandford Capital Pty Limited (AFSL 461981). Managers engaged under a CAR arrangement operate as authorised representatives of the relevant licensee, with supervision, training and compliance monitoring provided as part of that appointment.
4. How did FundBase Group start?
FundBase Group grew out of financial services law and AFSL incubation, and was originally established to solve an internal operational problem — delivering cost-effective fund administration and back-office support and to a high standard. As more managers asked for the same support, the model was extended into an integrated fund infrastructure platform, built on proprietary technology, serving managers across the public and provate markets.
5. What makes FundBase Group different from other fund service providers?
FundBase Group's compliance frameworks came out of financial services law and AFSL incubation rather than being assembled to support a service offering. Supervision, controls and governance processes were built and tested under real regulatory scrutiny before being extended to external managers. For a manager operating under FundBase Group's licence, that means inheriting a compliance framework that has already been applied in practice rather than one designed alongside their appointment.
6. What kind of fund managers does FundBase Group work with?
FundBase Group works with both managers launching a first fund and established firms operating multiple vehicles. Clients span public markets, hedge funds, venture capital, private equity, private credit, property strategies, alternatives and include wholesale and retail investment managers. Engagements range from full operating partnerships through to a single outsourced function.
7. What is FundBase Group's mission?
FundBase Group exists to simplify fund infrastructure for fund managers by delivering technology-enabled, end-to-end fund operations that reduce complexity, enhance investor confidence and support manager growth. The longer-term aim is to become Australia's leading integrated fund infrastructure platform for emerging and established managers.
