Joost Lobler, the former commercial officer at Fortis Fund Solutions who joined Equity Fund Services in October 2006, has resigned his position as Managing Director of the firm. It follows differences of view over the future strategy of the company.
Equity Fund Services merged in May this year with Dublin-based Custom House Global Fund Services Limited to create a joint enterprise with more than $50 billion in assets under administration.
Lobler, who was instrumental in bringing the two firms together, is expected to re-surface shortly at another hedge fund administration company.
Equity Fund Services’ future strategies were covered in a story in last summer’s issue of Global Custodian magazine.
