Arcesium, a provider of investment lifecycle and data management technology for the investment industry, has opened a new office in Hong Kong.

The office will support the firm’s existing client base of institutional asset managers, hedge funds, banks, and private markets firms operating across Asia Pacific, while also providing flexible technology and services for new launches and regional growth, according to a statement by Arcesium.

Arcesium CEO, Gaurav Suri, commented: “We are delighted that Arcesium is officially present in another major financial hub, building on our successful operations across Europe and the US. Hong Kong is acknowledged as a leading financial center in Asia, home to a uniquely dynamic intersection of global capital, regional innovation, and regulatory sophistication.”

The new regional hub builds on Arcesium’s reflects increasing demand from institutional investment firms in Asia Pacific for more robust data, operational, and technology capabilities to support multi-asset strategies and regional growth. 

Chris Barrow, head of business development, EMEA & APAC at Arcesium added: “The Hong Kong Monetary Authority’s commitment to deepening cross-border access makes Hong Kong a key regional lever for every prominent multi-strategy hedge fund and global asset manager so we’re pleased to be well positioned to help the industry unlock new opportunities on a global scale.”

Arcesium launched in 2015 from its headquarters in New York and technology and operations hub in Hyderabad, India, and then expanded into London in 2020 and Lisbon in 2024.

It was built from a platform developed by investment and technology development firm, the D. E. Shaw group, and launched as a joint venture with Blackstone Multi-Asset Investing. J.P. Morgan, another large client, later made a strategic investment in the company.
