Oversight that protects the mandate.

We work with private equity and asset management institutions to build and enforce Outside Counsel Guidelines, audit legal spend, and train procurement personnel to apply billing standards with consistency and confidence — closing every gap that erodes fiduciary trust before it reaches the bottom line.

The Problem

Legal spend is one of the least scrutinised lines on an institutional balance sheet — and one of the easiest to get wrong. OCGs go unenforced. Invoices go unread. Fund expense allocations drift from what was agreed. Entities stay registered long after they've served their purpose — accumulating fees with no operational justification.

Custodia exists to close that gap before it costs you.

What We Do

OCG Enforcement Guidelines mean nothing if no one checks them.

Legal Spend Audits Line-by-line accountability, not a rubber stamp.

Procurement Training & Invoice Controls We train your procurement and finance teams to catch bad billing before it ever reaches sign-off.

Dormant Entity Reviews Quarterly oversight that stops you paying for entities that no longer earn their keep.

Fiduciary Oversight Built for the institutions that answer to someone else.
