CACEIS has been appointed to provide custody and depositary services for Triodos Investment Management’s Dutch Article 9 fund range, extending an existing relationship across its broader fund platform.
Under the mandate, CACEIS will deliver a full suite of asset servicing functions, including fund administration and reporting alongside its core safekeeping and oversight responsibilities.
Frans Hofkens, head of business development, CACEIS Netherlands, said: “Our extensive experience in supporting leading asset managers, combined with our scalable and automated front-to-back servicing model, provides a strong foundation for a strategic partnership with Triodos Investment Management.”
The appointment reinforces its role across Triodos’ operating model, with custody and depositary services forming the backbone of support for the manager’s highest sustainability-classified strategies under the EU’s Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR).
Martijn van Oort, managing director risk, finance & operations, Triodos Investment Management, said: “Working with CACEIS as our asset servicing partner provides a strong foundation for a long-term partnership. Together, we can further simplify our operations, increase efficiency and strengthen our focus on delivering value to our clients while maximizing our positive impact.”
The expanded remit reflects continued growth in Article 9 funds, which require more intensive transparency, reporting and regulatory oversight than lower-classified products.
For asset servicers, this has translated into greater emphasis on integrated custody and administration frameworks capable of handling increasingly granular ESG data requirements.
The development also highlights the steady convergence of custody, administration and data services, as asset managers look to streamline operations in response to regulatory complexity and investor scrutiny in sustainable finance.
