About FundOpsHQ
FundOpsHQ is a comprehensive resource for fund operations professionals, providing practical insights and best practices across all investment fund types and operational functions.
Our Mission
To provide fund operations professionals with accessible, high-quality educational content that helps them navigate the complexities of modern fund management.
What We Cover
Operational Pillars
Our content is organized across key operational functions including CFO responsibilities, compliance and regulatory requirements, fund administration and accounting, investor relations and communications, tax planning and K-1 preparation, banking and treasury management, fundraising and capital raising, insurance and risk mitigation, audit and financial reporting, and cybersecurity and IT infrastructure.
Asset Classes
We provide specialized content for each major fund type, recognizing that Private Equity funds have different operational needs than Hedge Funds, and that Real Estate funds face unique challenges compared to Venture Capital. Our fund-specific resources ensure you get relevant guidance for your asset class.
Career Stages
Whether you're a seasoned CFO looking to optimize existing processes, a compliance officer navigating new regulations, or an operations professional expanding into new fund types, our content serves professionals at all career stages.
Our Approach
FundOpsHQ content is built on the principle that fund operations knowledge should be accessible, comprehensive, and immediately useful. We focus on the "how" as much as the "what"—not just explaining what needs to be done, but providing practical guidance on implementation.
Each article addresses specific operational challenges, offers actionable recommendations, and highlights common pitfalls to avoid. We structure content to allow quick reference while providing sufficient depth for detailed understanding.
Our goal is to be the resource you turn to when facing a new operational challenge, evaluating process improvements, or onboarding team members to fund operations responsibilities.
Who Built This
FundOpsHQ is maintained by Danny Bloomstine, Managing Director at IQ-EQ, where he provides outsourced fund administration, compliance, tax, and CFO services to investment managers.
Over the past decade, Danny has worked at the intersection of capital markets, technology, and fund operations—beginning at S&P Capital IQ, joining as an early employee at VTS, growing business development at Juniper Square, and now leading client solutions at IQ-EQ.
This resource was created to bridge the gap between high-level theory and day-to-day operational reality. Every article draws from hands-on experience managing the complexities of fund operations across multiple asset classes.
