Japan’s Misaki Capital has appointed Northern Trust for global custody and foreign exchange services.

Northern Trust supports clients with a comprehensive suite of asset servicing solutions to meet Japanese investor’s unique offshore requirements.

This is delivered through global solutions combined with a deep understanding of the Japanese market, Northern Trust revealed.

Additionally, from its Tokyo office, Northern Trust also offers investment managers expertise to Japanese investors.

Masaki Gotoh, CIO at Misaki Capital, said: “We appointed Northern Trust based on their established reputation as a leading global custodian and administrator with a worldwide presence and ability to bring us advanced global technology solutions.”

“Their ability to not only offer a variety of customisable solutions but support us as we evolve are key factors in their appointment.”

Caroline Higgins, head of global fund services for Asia-Pacific at Northern Trust, said: “We are pleased to support Misaki with custody and foreign exchange services so that they can continue to focus on creating and maximising long-term, absolute returns.”

“The Japanese asset management market is poised for significant growth, and we see an increasing appetite from both domestic and international investors to access Japanese markets.”

“In particular, we are moving away from conservative asset classes towards higher yield investments, creating growth opportunities for asset managers.”

Higgins added: “At Northern Trust we work closely with our asset management clients to deliver solutions that best support their unique requirements, enabling them to focus on their core business of driving alpha.”
