Rebrand of Gordian Capital completed, bringing APAC’s first and largest institutional cross-border fund platform fully into the IQ-EQ brand
SINGAPORE: IQ-EQ, a global investor services group and Astorg portfolio company, has today announced the rebrand of its Gordian Capital business to IQ-EQ.
Gordian Capital, now IQ-EQ, represents Asia’s first and largest institutional cross-border fund platform and a dominant fund solutions provider across APAC. Since 2005, the business has launched over 115 funds across both private and public strategies and currently manages US$22 billion. Clients include global institutional asset managers, multi-strategy platforms, family offices, hedge funds and corporates across private equity, real estate, venture capital, infrastructure, hedge and long-only strategies.
The business will now operate solely under the IQ-EQ name across all client, colleague and market touchpoints.
This rebrand connects Gordian’s capabilities more closely to IQ-EQ’s wider international platform, streamlining access to a much more extensive range of services for legacy Gordian clients while maintaining local service continuity. It also reinforces IQ-EQ’s fund structuring and operational capabilities across APAC and strengthens the Group’s position as the deepest and broadest provider of regulated market entry offerings in the industry, with platforms in Singapore, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Dubai, Luxembourg, Ireland, France and the UK.
The rebrand of Gordian Capital additionally supports IQ-EQ’s ongoing global growth agenda and closely follows Gordian’s achievement of regulatory approval to establish operations in the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC).
Commenting on the rebrand, Mark Voumard, Managing Director and Head of Fund Platform and Solutions, Asia and Middle East at IQ-EQ, said:
“Rebranding Gordian to IQ-EQ allows us to go to market under one brand and present a strong, united team with significant depth and breadth of expertise globally. Legacy Gordian clients, where appropriate, will be able to connect more easily to IQ-EQ’s broader set of capabilities across its 25 worldwide jurisdictions, providing the right investor services and specialist support as their needs evolve. Between our new DIFC licence and this rebrand, it’s an exciting time for our team with lots of new opportunities for both our clients and our people. Above all, we remain resolutely committed to delivering service excellence as we move forward under the IQ-EQ banner.”
