Ocorian expands U.S. presence with New York senior leadership move

Ocorian, a global leader in asset and fund services, has reinforced its commitment to the U.S. and asset managers with the relocation of another Group Executive Committee member, Global Co-Head of Fund Services, Yegor Lanovenko, to New York from London. The move builds on Ocorian’s recent U.S. acquisitions and reflects its ambition to further expand in the world’s largest asset management market.

For Ocorian clients and partners, Yegor’s relocation means more direct access to Ocorian’s senior executive leadership and a globally consistent, technology-enabled service platform spanning the full fund lifecycle, combining the newly integrated expertise of E78 Fund Solutions with Ocorian’s global asset services capabilities.

Yegor is a member of Ocorian’s Executive Committee and reports to Chief Executive Officer Chantal Free alongside fellow Global Co-Head Ben Hill, who is based in Guernsey. In his role, Yegor will continue focusing on connecting Ocorian’s global teams and capabilities to deliver seamless, scalable solutions and products for asset managers across jurisdictions, while leading further growth and the strategic development of Ocorian in the U.S.
Yegor is the second member of Ocorian’s Executive Committee to be based in the U.S. Jason Gerlis, the Global Head of Corporate Services is based in Charlotte and also sponsors Ocorian’s approach to global partnerships.  

Chantal Free, Chief Executive Officer at Ocorian, said: “Expanding our exposure to the U.S. market is a core strategic priority. With two of our Executive Committee members now based in the U.S., we are better positioned to serve asset managers and financial institutions who need consistent global delivery, supported by senior leadership on the ground. The strong executive presence underlines our commitment to clients and our growth ambitions in this market."

Yegor Lanovenko, Global Co-Head of Fund Services at Ocorian, added: “Ocorian has ambitious plans for the U.S. I look forward to working with our clients, teams and partners to bring the strength of our global platform and integrated expertise in a consistent, value-adding way. Asset managers today need partners who can support them seamlessly across borders and across their lifecycle, and Ocorian is uniquely positioned to deliver that.”
