Ocorian, a provider of asset and fund services, has relocated London-based Yegor Lanovenko, group executive committee member and global co-head of fund services, to New York.
The move builds on Ocorian’s recent US acquisitions and reflects the firm’s objective to expand within the US asset management market.
For Ocorian’s clients and partners, Lanovenko’s relocation means more direct access to Ocorian’s senior executive leadership and a globally consistent platform spanning the full fund lifecycle, the firm says.
Lanovenko is a member of Ocorian’s executive committee and reports to CEO Chantal Free, alongside fellow global co-head Ben Hill, who is based in Guernsey.
In his role, Lanovenko will continue to focus on connecting Ocorian’s global teams and capabilities to deliver solutions and products for asset managers across jurisdictions.
Lanovenko is the second member of Ocorian’s executive committee to be based in the US — Jason Gerlis, the global head of corporate services is based in Charlotte and also sponsors Ocorian’s approach to global partnerships.
Chantal Free, CEO at Ocorian, says: “Expanding our exposure to the US market is a core strategic priority.
“With two of our executive committee members now based in the US, we are better positioned to serve asset managers and financial institutions who need consistent global delivery, supported by senior leadership on the ground.”
Lanovenko adds: “Ocorian has ambitious plans for the US. I look forward to working with our clients, teams, and partners to bring the strength of our global platform and integrated expertise in a consistent, value-adding way.
“Asset managers today need partners who can support them seamlessly across borders and across their lifecycle, and Ocorian is uniquely positioned to deliver that.”
