The expansion of Apex Group’s ten-year relationship with Integral Corporation represents further success for the Apex teams in both India and Australia. The team’s expertise, outstanding performance and Japanese language skills have secured a positive client retention rate. Apex Group will now offer the following services: Cayman fund administration, Cayman regulatory reporting, tax reporting, board meeting for Fund II, III, IV and number of investment vehicles.
Japan’s private equity market is booming with rapid growth over the past year. Both international and local investors seek to reap the rewards of Japan’s geopolitical stability and strong business culture that is becoming more comfortable with the asset class. Global fund managers are progressively viewing Japan-specific funds as opportunities to achieve higher returns without incurring the same levels of risk as in other APAC jurisdictions.
Yuko Shimizu, Business Development Director, APAC at Apex Group, said: “Integral is one of the largest independent Japanese private equity firms, participating in the most exciting markets for investors across APAC. Apex Group is proud to have grown with Integral for the last ten years and to continue to expand our relationship. The Apex Group family has done some amazing work in this market, and it’s great that Integral continues to recognise us.”
Yasuaki Sumikawa, CFO at Integral Corporation, said: “We are excited to be working with Apex Group, a strategically important partner of our group, on our fifth fund series, as we have done for the past ten years.”
