Wells Fargo Global Fund Services has opened an office in Hong Kong, located in Wells Fargo’s existing local office in Central.

The Global Fund Services’ platform uses a platform and technology that provides traditional fund administration services, operational support, derivatives processing, bank debt processing, and cash/collateral management to alternative investment and private equity firms.

“We are committed to supporting our suite of industry offerings throughout the Asian region,” says Celia Choh, head of fund services Asia. “This expanded local presence is carefully integrated into our global platform, which leverages Wells Fargo’s market experience and expertise.”

Johnson Har will lead the Hong Kong office. He joined Wells Fargo as a vice president in August from Custom House Global Fund Services. His financial services industry experience also includes sales and business development positions at Newedge Group and HSBC Institutional Trust Service in Hong Kong.
