"We are pleased to have established this relationship with Perpetual, which expands our ability to support retail Singapore unit trusts and further enhances our servicing capabilities in Singapore," said Yen Leng Ong, Country Head of Singapore at Northern Trust. "This relationship combines Northern Trust's expertise in asset servicing with Perpetual's trustee capabilities to deliver a scalable and integrated solution for investment managers. As demand for Singapore’s fund industry continues to evolve, we are well-positioned to support both existing and new managers with the operational infrastructure and servicing capabilities required across the fund lifecycle."
