Gordian”s client base includes family offices, asset managers and hedge funds.
IQ-EQ has rebranded
its Asia-based Gordian Capital business under the IQ-EQ name,
bringing the fund platform provider completely within the group’s
global brand.
Gordian Capital, founded in 2005, is regarded as Asia’s first
institutional cross-border fund platform. The business, which has
launched more than 115 private and public funds, currently
manages $22 billion in assets. Its client base includes
institutional asset managers, family offices, hedge funds,
corporates and multi-strategy platforms across asset classes
including private equity, real estate, venture capital,
infrastructure and long-only strategies.
The move is designed to align Gordian’s operations more closely
with IQ-EQ’s international platform, giving existing clients
access to the group’s broader range of investor services across
its global network while maintaining local support. IQ-EQ said
the rebrand also strengthens its fund structuring and operational
capabilities across Asia-Pacific and reinforces its regulated
market entry offering, with platforms spanning Singapore, Hong
Kong, Tokyo, Dubai, Luxembourg, Ireland, France and the UK.
The announcement follows the business securing regulatory
approval to establish operations in the Dubai International
Financial Centre.
“Rebranding Gordian to IQ-EQ allows us to go to market under one
brand and present a strong, united team with significant depth
and breadth of expertise globally,” Mark Voumard, managing
director and head of fund platform and solutions, Asia and Middle
East at IQ-EQ, said. He added that legacy Gordian clients would
benefit from easier access to IQ-EQ’s wider capabilities across
its 25 jurisdictions as their requirements evolve.
