Recently, ZEDRA acquired BFCS, the fund and corporate services arm of Banque Internationale à Luxembourg (BIL).

The transaction, whose financial terms have not been revealed, is subject to regulatory approval from Luxembourg’s financial regulator, the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (CSSF).

BFCS, which is in business for over five decades, provides a spectrum of services and solutions in both the corporate and funds sectors.

BFCS’ client base currently comprises HNW individuals, asset managers, investment and real-estate fund professionals.

Upon regulatory approval of the deal, the BFCS business will be fully integrated to ZEDRA. BFCS staff will move to the company’s existing offices in Luxembourg.
