DSTi opens regional headquarters for Middle East

DST International (DSTi), a leading provider of business solutions and services to the financial services sector, has announced the opening of its new regional headquarters for the Middle East based in the Dubai International Financial Centre.
The official opening was confirmed by Group CEO of DSTi Tom Abraham during the Fund Forum Middle East (FFME) conference, which opened December 1 in Bahrain.
“In these turbulent times it is more important than ever for us to work closely with our clients to provide transparent, regulator-friendly solutions, particularly in the areas of risk analytics and portfolio accounting,” said Abraham.
He said that the financial services sector will see a major transformation of its regulatory and compliance environment and that DSTi is well placed to help its clients through this period.
Abraham said DSTi, which provides solutions to most of the world’s largest asset managers, provides comprehensive, scalable and flexible investment management solutions for investment companies of all sizes.
“While DSTi works with the world's largest asset managers, we are also keen to provide the right level of solution and local support to satisfy smaller local and regional clients,” Abraham said.
The Middle East headquarters expands DSTi’s network to 18 offices serving over 700 clients across 55 countries.
Abraham is attending the FFME conference in order to chair a ‘stream’ debate on support services to the financial services sector and host a DSTi sponsored cocktail reception.
DSTi has been serving the Middle East region for 14 years out of London.  In addition to the Middle East, the new fully fledged regional headquarters in Dubai will serve the growing Eurasian countries to the north and the north African countries to the west.
