Citco, the asset-services provider to the alternative investment sector, has opened an office in Kansas to support its expansion into the retail alternatives market. The office supports the operations of Citco’s recently effective SEC-registered transfer agency, which is focused exclusively on the retail alternatives market. It will serve as the main centre for Citco’s SEC registered and retail alternatives transfer agency offering, while transfer agency services will also be supported by staff in other Citco offices across North America and Asia. Citco has already gone live with its first client in this sector.
