On the 1st of January 2015, Alceda Fund Management S.A.‘s Asian operation moved from Hong Kong to Singapore. Integrating Aquila Group’s services in Singapore will help to exploit synergies with Alceda’s affiliate company Aquila Capital, which has had an office in Singapore since 2011. “Centralising Alceda’s presence in Singapore will closely align the Group’s services to the diverse needs of institutional clients within the region“, explains Michael Sanders, CEO and Chairman of the Board, Alceda Fund Management S.A.
Aquila Group has long standing experience in Asia spanning both financial asset and real asset investments. The recently introduced Asia Region Funds Passport (ARFP), which is similar to the UCITS scheme and provides a multilaterally agreed framework to facilitate the cross border marketing of managed funds across participating economies in the Asia region, makes Singapore an attractive location for the suite of structuring services offered by Alceda. “We are convinced that the importance of Singapore as a central location for the fund and asset management industry within the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation will continue to grow over the coming years. Our strategic decision to base Alceda’s Asian operations in Singapore reflects this development and aims to strengthen our positions within the region“, explains Sanders.
