CACEIS awarded 24 new depository service mandates in Germany in the closed-ended fund sector

PARIS, 28-4-2014 — /EuropaWire/ — Over the past 12 months, CACEIS was awarded some 24 new depository service (Verwahrstelle) mandates in Germany in the closed-ended fund sector. In addition to those mentioned in previous press releases, these wins include well-known asset management firms such as Doric, Hahn and Signa.

Closed-ended fund managers in Germany have recently undergone a period of restructuring led by the AIFM Directive which was implemented in July 2013. CACEIS offers a range of fully-compliant AIFMD services to private equity and real estate funds including aviation, renewable energy and shipping containers. AIFMD restructuring, together with the ongoing trend of outsourcing non-core business activities, has opened up many new opportunities for CACEIS to provide support services that go beyond traditional fund depositary services.

According to Holger Sepp, Co-Head and Board Member of CACEIS in Germany, “We have paid close attention to the needs of the closed-ended funds over the past few years, as CACEIS is already the leading independent depository for open-ended real estate funds in the German market. This significant number of mandate wins for closed-ended funds is largely due to the CACEIS Group’s strong commitment to the private equity and real estate community as well as the German office’s specific expertise and ability to provide customised servicing solutions.”
