Apex Group has extended its existing partnership with Marlin Capital Partners (Marlin) to provide fund administration and accounting services to its latest fund Marlin RSP.
Launched in February 2022, Marlin Capital Partners is a boutique asset management and advisory firm headquartered in The Bahamas. It is licensed and regulated by the Securities Commission of The Bahamas. It offers advisory services and manages assets on a discretionary basis.
Apex Group will provide fund administration, middle office, business services and compliance services for the Marlin RSP.
This extends Apex Group’s existing partnership with Marlin. In 2021, Apex was selected to provide outsourced management company, middle office and fund administration services to the Marlin Money Market Fund.
Jason Meklinsky, head of business development, Americas at Apex Group, comments: “We look forward to continuing to work with the Marlin team on this and future funds, allowing them to focus on delivering performance and growth, while our experienced experts provide the resources to ensure greater operational efficiency.”
Richard Heathcote and Zachary Lyons, partners at Marlin Capital Partners, add: “We are now able to access all the fund administration, middle office, business and compliance services we require through one convenient and efficient relationship. We continue to be impressed by the level of client service we receive and the knowledge of the team.”
Apex Group has also expanded its global compliance solutions designed for the Singapore market.
The expanded team will be led by newly appointed Stefan Ho, head of compliance solutions, Singapore.
This expansion into the Singapore market will help to address clients’ risks and concerns around ESG, climate and environmental risk, anti-money laundering and compliance, as well as emerging technologies such as digital assets and artificial intelligence.
The global compliance solutions team will work closely with Apex Group’s corporate solutions team to offer a solution combining regulatory compliance with back-office, bookkeeping and entity formation services.
Hari Bhambra, global head of compliance solutions at Apex Group, says: “Singapore has an established yet evolving regulatory landscape. We are excited by the possibilities that these developments will create for the market, and with the launch of our compliance solutions offering, we look forward to helping our clients to navigate the opportunities for their businesses.”
