Apex has appointed Qasir Bashir to replace Peter Toyberg as country head of Denmark.
Toyberg is due to retire from the role in October.
Based in Copenhagen, Bashir will be responsible for overseeing the delivery of Apex’s solutions to Danish clients.
Prior to joining Sanne Group in 2021 — before it was acquired by Apex in 2022 — Bashir held senior roles within the Danish alternative investment management industry.
He was chief alternative investment risk officer at Danske Bank from 2019 to 2021 and chief consultant at Danske Invest from 2013 to 2017.
Bashir began his career in the financial regulation industry and later held fund operation roles.
Bashir will continue to work alongside Apex’s regional management team, including James Burke, regional head of Northern Europe, Amanda Ekman, country head of Sweden, and Dominik Becker, regional head of business development for Central and Northern Europe.
Apex’s acquisition of Sanne in 2022 added almost 80 employees to Apex’s Danish regional team. The group’s Danish business now offers a full suite of technology-enabled products and solutions across fund administration, financial and corporate solutions.
Apex Group’s Danish clients have access to Apex’s global digital banking, depositary, fundraising services as well as ESG ratings and advisory solutions.
Bashir comments: “Along with the experienced regional management team, I will be focused on ensuring that we leverage Apex Group’s global technology-enabled solutions, while also recognising the unique needs of the Danish market and our growing local client base across all asset classes covering listed and private assets. I look forward to announcing the launch of new products and capabilities for the benefit of our clients, in due course.”
