Hawksford has significant ambitions to grow its multi-jurisdictional, multi-service funds proposition.
Establishing a new presence in Cayman was therefore a natural next step for the global service provider, with the firm acquiring Paradigm Governance Partners last year.
Now fully integrated as part of Hawksford’s global network – consisting of more than 650 funds, corporate and private client professionals across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia and the Americas – the Cayman team is set to play a pivotal role in further strengthening the firm’s cross-border funds capabilities.
The Cayman business was originally established in 2017 by local senior professionals who came together to build a fiduciary services company with a client and investor-focused service delivery model.
The CIMA-regulated business was built by four business partners: Geoff Ruddick, Nic Corsetti, Leo Kassam and Cary Marr. They continue to lead a 30-strong team in Cayman and the US, who provide a range of boutique fiduciary services to investment managers, including independent directorship, outsourced accounting, economic substance and ancillary services.
The team continues to grow – Tamara Hill recently joined as chief operating officer – while the office is also set to benefit from ongoing investment into its technology and operational infrastructure, too, in line with Hawksford’s wider growth plans.
As corporate governance and regulatory challenges continue to impact fund managers in an ever-evolving regulatory landscape, Hawksford’s team in Cayman is well placed to help clients stay ahead of the curve and help Cayman assert its reputation as a major global centre for high quality funds business.
