Crestbridge has appointed Anthony Lee as Director, UK Head of Corporate Services, as the business continues to evolve and enhance its corporate service proposition for the UK market.
Anthony will play a key role in developing Crestbridge’s existing suite of services and solutions for corporate clients, including pre-IPO support, accounting, governance and depositary services for Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) and other investment companies.
With a career in finance, governance and business management spanning almost 30 years, Anthony also has expertise in the UK listed funds sector. In particular, he has specialised in the provision of bespoke outsourced support services to investment companies following equity, real estate, infrastructure, renewables, fund-of-funds and debt strategies.
A Fellow of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (FCCA), Anthony has previously held senior roles at a number of service providers. Prior to joining Crestbridge he was Head of Listed Funds, UK, at another large global corporate and fund administration services provider, where he played a key role in the development of its UK listed fund solutions.
His appointment adds expertise to Crestbridge’s Corporate and Capital Markets team following the appointments earlier this year of Martin Lambert as Group Head, Corporate and Capital Markets, and Luke Hamill as Head of Capital Markets.
Martin Lambert said: “We’re continuing to evolve our services for the UK corporate market, as demand grows from our clients for expert outsourced support to help them realise their own strategic ambitions in an increasingly complex environment. Crestbridge already has deep expertise in supporting clients with their capital raising and capital markets needs, and Anthony’s appointment reflects our commitment to further expanding our capabilities. His knowledge and experience in the UK listed funds space will be a hugely valuable addition to our senior team.”
Anthony added: “Crestbridge has a clear vision to bring sophisticated, expert solutions to the corporate sector in the UK. I’m looking forward to working with colleagues across the Group to help drive our proposition forward and continuing to develop our comprehensive, client-centric platform for the UK market, drawing on and complementing the firm’s wider global capabilities.”
