As private fund managers scale, treasury operations are becoming both more complex and more visible. What were once manual, spreadsheet-driven processes are now creating meaningful operational strain, increasing risk exposure, and drawing heightened scrutiny from LPs.

In this keynote interview with Private Funds CFO, Danny Olds, Partner and Head of Treasury Practice at Alpha Alternatives, explores the common challenges fund managers face as volumes grow, structures diversify, and expectations around controls and forecasting rise.

The discussion highlights why proactive investment in treasury processes, data strategy, and technology is no longer optional. From cash forecasting and liquidity optimization to fraud prevention and LP confidence, modern treasury management plays a critical role in enabling scale while reducing risk.

Drawing on real-world experience across private equity, private credit, and diversified asset managers, the interview outlines practical considerations for firms at different stages of maturity and offers a clear view into what “good” treasury looks like today.
