MUFG Luxembourg Management Company SA (“MUFG LM”)
MUFG LM provides management company (‘ManCo’) services to over 150 funds from Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group companies, and third-party funds domiciled in Luxembourg, Ireland, the Cayman Islands and Bermuda. One of Luxembourg’s largest AIF managers, MUFG LM also handles a wide variety of UCITS, hedge, private equity and real estate funds.
MUFG LM’s compliance team is relatively small. As such, they appreciate our solution’s intuitive user interface and default templates, which make rule creation and updates fast and easy.
However, our compliance solution for clients like MUFG LM goes beyond software delivery. With over two decades of asset management experience, we know which questions to ask to understand each firm’s compliance needs and help them configure the right rules for their specific requirements.
