Financial services

Registered and licensed fund management companies, financial advisers and funds are under continuous market and regulatory pressure. This, coupled with the dynamic nature of the industry – with its tightening regulatory environment, accelerating pace, and volatile markets – constantly challenges them to stay on top of their game.

CREATING VALUE ACROSS THE FUND LIFECYCLE

Managing a fund is a complex and a multi-faceted task; choosing the right service provider and adviser can be crucial in delivering your strategy. Fund managers need the right level of support and advice in relation to considerations such as where they base and organise their operations, domicile their funds, target and service prospective investors. 

Being part of a well-regulated sector, fund managers need to balance the need to pursue profits and respect compliance obligations.
