Centralis Group (Centralis), an alternative asset and corporate services provider, has announced its acquisition of Admina Fund Services (Admina).
Centralis partners with alternative investment firms and corporate organisations providing administrative, global expansion and governance solutions tailored to each clients’ unique needs. Headquartered in Luxembourg, with a presence in 12 countries and 16 locations globally, Centralis has established itself as a provider of customer-centric tailored services via 425+ experienced professionals.
Admina is a provider of fund administration and corporate services based in the Channel Island of Guernsey. Admina provides a full suite of integrated fund administration and company secretarial services to regulated and unregulated, listed and unlisted closed ended limited partnerships, companies, trusts and foundations across multiple asset classes, including all related holding structures, management and carried interest vehicles.
The acquisition will broaden Centralis’ presence within this important jurisdiction and marketplace. As Centralis continues its drive for growth and global expansion, Admina’s services provide Centralis with the opportunity to expand its current servicing capabilities to additional clients. Admina’s current clients will also benefit from access to Centralis’ existing service offering.
Aidan Foley, CEO of Centralis told Channel Eye: “The acquisition of Admina is another important milestone for us as we expand our breadth of services to our Alternative and Corporate client base. Admina will take us into the strategically important Channel Islands and also expand our fund administration capability. On behalf of my colleagues and myself, we welcome the whole Admina team to Centralis Group”.
