Commenting on the appointment, Jim McKay, Warakirri managing director, said: “We were impressed with RBC’s technology platform and a strong commitment to the ongoing development of their IT and service platform. This aligns with Warakirri’s own commitment to investing in our business to continue to deliver high-quality investment outcomes and service to our clients.”
“Not only were RBC able to offer a solution tailored to meet our AMIT requirements, but a consolidated offer inclusive of wholesale and retail registry services.”
