Alter Domus has appointed Paul Woods as regional executive, North America to expand the firm’s regional presence.
Based in Boston, Woods will directly report to CEO Doug Hart and has also been appointed to the group executive board.
Woods is responsible for broadening Alter Domus’ North American presence in the sectors of private debt, real estate, and private equity management following the firm’s acquisition of Cortland Capital Market Services in 2017.
Woods previously served as senior vice president at State Street Global Services, where he oversaw management and delivery of custody and fund administration services.
Hart commented: “Our acquisition and integration of Cortland into Alter Domus was the first step in our ambitions to grow our capabilities and presence in North America. Paul Woods, an industry veteran who embodies Alter Domus’ aim of becoming a true and trusted partner to our clients, is a second important step.”
“His experience and deep understanding of the US market, where over half of our clients are located, make him the ideal candidate to lead our growing North American business.”
Woods said: “Alter Domus is a market-leading, trusted provider of services to asset management, family office and lending clients and I am excited to be joining the firm. Alter Domus’ world-class, technology-enabled solutions are ideally suited to meet evolving client needs and provide a compelling platform with which to accelerate our growth in the region.”
