Prior to joining Intertrust, Allison was with JPMorgan Chase & Co for six years in London where she served as Global Head of Funds Custody. She held also various positions at Citco Fund Services and Eton Park Capital Management.

Matt joined from TMF Group, where he was most recently head of transfer agent services. Before this, he worked at BBH in the alternative custody department. Derek Russell was with State Street for nine years in both Luxembourg and Japan. Most recently, he was Head of Cross-Border Fund Client Services, servicing asset managers from the company’s Japan office.

Lee Godfrey, Managing Director Western Europe, said: “Allison’s new role and the appointment of the team are part of Intertrust’s Western European long-term growth strategy, and our focus on the interactions between our clients and the organisation throughout the client lifecycle. I’m confident that, together with her team, Allison is best placed to deliver further improvements which meet, and exceed, our clients’ expectations.”
