Amicorp FS (UK) Plc

('AMIF', the 'Company' or the 'Group')

 

Board Changes

 

Amicorp FS (UK) Plc, the international specialist fund services group, is
pleased to announce the appointment of Robin Hoekjan, the Group's Chief
Operating Officer ('COO'), as an Executive Director of the Company with
immediate effect.

 

Robin joined AMIF's Executive Management team, which is separate to the PLC
Board, as COO on 28 March 2024. Robin will continue to perform his COO role
following his appointment to the AMIF Board of Directors. He has a wealth of
experience in the fund administration industry having worked across many
jurisdictions, including London, Amsterdam, Luxembourg and Dubai.  As COO,
his knowledge has helped drive operational excellence and IT advancement
across the Group.

 

Robin joined AMIF from TMF Group, a Dutch multinational professional services
firm, where he worked for four years in various roles, including most recently
as Global Head of Onboarding and Investor AML/KYC. Prior to this, Robin was
Head of Depositary Services at a specialised administration services company,
as well as having held several roles in a number of fund management firms,
focusing on portfolio management and deal making in listed securities, private
equity and venture capital.

 

As part of these Board changes, Kiran Kumar, the previous Chief Operating
Officer of the Company, has with immediate effect stood down from his position
as an Executive Director of the Company, to focus on the business development
and promotion of the Group's Business Process Outsourcing division.

 

No information is required to be disclosed pursuant to paragraph  9.6.13R of
the Listing Rules.

 

Commenting on the Board Changes, Kin Lai, CEO of AMIF, said: "I am pleased to
announce today the appointment of Robin to our Board.  He joined us as our
COO earlier this year and has been an excellent appointment and we have
already started to see the benefits of his deep knowledge and experience of
the fund administration sector in which we operate.  We believe that Robin is
extremely well placed to support AMIF in its next phase of growth and we look
forward to his continued insight and counsel.

 

"The Board also joins me in thanking Kiran for his considerable input since
the Group joined the London Stock Exchange in June 2023. We are excited that
his new role will focus on our high growth BPO division, in which we
anticipate increased market share going forward reinforcing our position as a
leader in the BPO sector."
