New hedge fund in Asia underway.

Citi has been appointed by Whiz Partners Inc. to support fund administration and transfer agency services for its newly-launched Whiz Rock Global Macro Investment Fund (Global Macro Investment Fund) in Asia.

“As the launch of the Global Macro Investment Fund marks our first foray into the hedge fund space in Asia, it is essential for us to team up with a trusted and reliable partner to achieve operational efficiency.

We are confident that Citi’s combination of global reach and local expertise will fully support our growth strategy within the region,” said Atsushi Matsumura, Chief Operating Officer of Whiz Partners Inc.
