Global custodian RBC Dexia Investor Services has opened an office in Malaysia with plans to add hundreds of staff to boost its presence in the region.
Chief executive officer Jos Placido says the new operational centre will help to provide clients with access to 24-hour service capabilities and enhance the scalability of the groups global operations.
“The priority has been to establish Malaysia as an operations centre for our existing clients, says Dominique Draux, regional head Asia-Pacific for RBC Dexia Investor Services and managing director for the Malaysia office. In the next few months we will also conduct a market review on the domestic market in Malaysia to decide whether to establish ourselves as a local service provider for domestic and Sharia-compliant funds.”
