RBC Dexia Investor Services has been appointed by Aubrey Capital Management, the Edinburgh based investment management group, who have a specialisation in global conviction investment funds, to be the trustee and to provide global custody, fund administration, foreign exchange and transfer agency services for two UCITS funds to be serviced out of Dublin.
"RBC Dexia helped us launch our Australian domiciled fund earlier this year and their subsequent service and support continues to impress us," said Barry McCorkell, CEO at Aubrey Capital Management. "Their significant investment in distribution support and expertise in setting up and servicing UCITS structures, combined with the client service excellence they have already proven, made this appointment the natural choice."
Existing RBC Dexia client, Treasury Group (TRG) acquired an equity stake in Aubrey Capital Management in late 2009. Treasury Group partners with boutique fund managers like Aubrey Capital Management in developing their businesses through marketing and distribution, governance, risk and compliance services and business administration.
"RBC Dexia's on-the-ground support in Dublin during the set up of Aubrey's UCITS funds was instrumental to our appointment," said David Travers, managing director at RBC Dexia. "Having a strong relationship with Treasury Group and working with Aubrey on their Australian domiciled fund gave us a clear understanding of their unique requirements and their business goals."
