Apex Group Ltd (Apex) has announced the foundation of the Apex Advisory Council and has appointed Robert Aaron as its first member.
Alongside the other members of the council, Aaron will help to develop Apex’s servicing model and go-to-marketing strategy in order to meet and exceed the needs of the industry.
Aaron has over thirty-five years of experience in the Alternatives Industry, as well as buy-side experience and the leadership of several large service providers.
Additionally, Aaron has served on the board of directors of the Managed Funds Association for a total of eight years, including two years as chairman.
The Apex Advisory Council has been set up to deliver an advisory role to the global group as it continues to expand on a global basis.
According to Apex, the purpose of the council is to form a select group of industry leaders, with significant track records in guiding market developments.
This will be done with the aim to help drive Apex forward as a leading innovator in the fund services space, and Apex’s clients will benefit from the addition of the council through an increased insight into industry trends.
Meanwhile, the Advisory Council will work closely with Apex’s CRO and member of Apex’s executive committee, Fred Jacobs, and additional appointments to the council will be made over the coming weeks.
Jacobs commented: “We are continually looking for ways to improve and evolve our product offering and service framework.”
“Following the recent stream of acquisitions, we are laser focused on ensuring we run a tight ship and maintain an exceptional experience for our clients, that includes staying ahead of the market and looking for new and innovative ways to adapt with the market and ahead of our competitors.”
“The appointment of Robert Aaron as the first member of the newly set up Apex Advisory Council is a clear signifier of the level of talent, authority and experience we are bringing on board as part of this panel.”
Aaron added: “I am very much looking forward to working with the Apex team and to being part of the Apex Advisory Council. It is an exciting time for Apex and a time of great change in the fund administration, and with this in mind the Advisory Council they are forming gives Apex a real competitive edge and their clients can feel confident that they are working with a partner that genuinely values their service.”
