Description

We are seeking proposals to appoint a Service Provider to deliver Custody and Investment Operations Outsourcing (IOO) Services. Custodian Services also include Fund accounting and transfer agency services (unitisation). We may also look to appoint a second Custodian to manage some of the PPF’s assets, the exact amount is to be confirmed. The second-Custodian would not be required to deliver Transfer agency services (Unitisation) but may be required to deliver Fund Accounting services depending on the assets covered.

Total Quantity or Scope

The stated value is a current estimate. Our estimated range is between £9m to £53m as we are aware that the actual value could vary significantly according to a number of potential factors over the life of the contract. Additional information: Following the evaluation of Stage 2 - invitation to tender (ITT) the PPF reserves the right to move straight to award (Stage 5) if there is a proposal that completely meets our need with no refinement needed. If refinements are needed we will continue to Stage 3 - Negotiations. Please refer to the Information and Guidance document (available on the PPF eSourcing portal) for further details.
