LONDON, Nov 29 (Reuters) - The owners of fund administrator Alter Domus are pursuing the sale of a stake in the Luxembourg-based group that could value it at more than 4 billion euros ($4.4 billion), three people familiar with the matter told Reuters. Alter Domus offers back office services to private capital funds, such as fund accounting and reporting, and oversees around $2 trillion in client assets. Permira, Alter Domus, Goldman Sachs and Raymond James all declined to comment. Alter Domus shareholders were reported in June 2022 to have held initial discussions with potential buyers, but a deal never materialised as soaring borrowing costs and market volatility rocked the deals market. Earlier this year, Reuters reported that buyout group Thomas H. Lee Partners had clinched a deal to invest in U.S. fund administrator Standish Management.

THL prevailed in an auction for the company over other private equity firms because its bid was favored by Standish's management, the sources said. The management team and other Standish employees, who collectively own 65% of the company, will retain a 45% stake, with THL holding the remainder, the sources added. London-based investment firm Vitruvian Partners, which first invested in Standish in 2020, is cashing out, the sources added. Private equity firms see fund administrators as attractive investments, given their predictable income streams and the ability to grow these companies through debt-fueled acquisitions. Its latest flagship private equity fund raised $5.6 billion from investors in 2021.
