Client Profile
JTC is a global leader in wealth management and private client services, providing customized solutions to affluent families and sophisticated investors. With offices in over 25 jurisdictions, JTC offers a comprehensive range of services, including investment management, trustee services, and family office solutions.
Challenges
“In 2017 we were approached by a prospect who wanted us to provide full service to a suite of authorised funds. Our approach was to partner with a third party who would deliver that service. So we outsourced that function to a third party and the delivery of service was super poor,” explains a JTC representative. “Hence we started to try and find a platform that we could utilise to bring that service in-house and deliver it.” •
- Scalability Concerns – JTC’s rapid business growth demanded a fund administration platform capable of handling increasing volumes and complexity.
- Regulatory Demands – Navigating the evolving regulatory landscape required a solution that could adapt and adhere to changing compliance requirements.
- Global Footprint – Ensuring seamless service across JTC’s international network necessitated a platform with robust capabilities and local expertise.

What the client said…
"Part of the great relationship with Puritas is very, very close. They're almost an extension of our JTC team. Very collaborative, very open to ideas, but also willing to give their ideas back in case we hadn't thought of something which they might think is key, which has been superb so far because it's meant when we have implemented new tasks, new processes, they meet the requirements that not only that we need, but they also work from a day-to-day perspective for the staff. They listen, they understand, they work with us, they're always available, they're attentive, so it's a really strong and powerful partnership that we have and I'm sure there's more to come."
