Bertil Rouveure (CEO of IGEFI Group) says: "To service IGEFI's Asia Pacific based clients even better in the future, we wanted to establish this office to be physically closer to them. He further comments; "With the staff already in place in the Singapore office, IGEFI's global model of attracting local industry professionals to support regional clients has already shown success.

To head up the Asia Pacific Professional Services business, IGEFI has hired Sandra Puah. Sandra has spent a substantial number of years in the fund industry, most recently managing a group of around 70 accountants in Citibank's Singapore office working with the MultiFonds Fund Accounting application. "With Sandra's knowledge of MultiFonds, the regional fund industry and the local players in this field, we feel we are in a very strong position to capitalise on the opportunities that lie ahead", Mr. Rouveure notes.

Jesper Steiness (Head of Business Development) further adds: "Attracting new clients requires a local presence and we are delighted that the IGEFI Singapore office is now fully operational. We look forward to spending even more time with existing clients and prospects in Asia".
