Apex Group named Frederick Shaw as U.S. head to oversee the Bermuda-based group’s growing business in the country, which currently spans 15 local offices and employs over 600 people.
Shaw joins from Hamilton Lane, where he served as chief risk officer and global head of operations in charge of teams managing tasks including regulatory compliance and risk management. He brings two decades of experience in the financial services industry, including compliance and operational roles in international banks and alternative asset management.
Shaw will collaborate closely with Apex Group’s experienced regional leadership team, including Group President Samir Pandiri, Chief Innovation Officer Georges Archibald and Regional Managing Director for the Americas Elaine Chim.
Archibald said Shaw’s “extensive buy-side experience will provide valuable insights into the requirements of our current and future clients and enable us to further enhance their operational efficiency and performance.”
In addition to its own strong organic growth, Apex Group recently boosted its corporate and business services offering for funds and corporates by acquiring, integrating and rebranding Greenhough Consulting Group.
Apex Group’s U.S. clients and international clients investing into the country can benefit from a comprehensive single-source solution, offering services including fund raising services and ESG ratings and advisory solutions.
“I look forward to playing a part in the business’ continued success, by leveraging Apex Group’s technology and solutions to better address the priorities of our clients,” Shaw said.
