Fund firm to create 50 jobs

A CORK-based fund company is creating 50 jobs with the opening of an office in Dublin.

Apex Fund Services, which is one of the world’s largest independent global fund administration businesses, said it is opening the office in response to its rapidly growing client base internationally.

With 21 offices internationally, Apex Fund Services located in Cork four years ago. It said that having now reached its optimum size and with an increasing amount of funds business going through the Irish office, establishing a presence in Dublin was the “obvious next step” for Apex Funds Services management.
