Northern Trust extends Asia/Pacific footprint


Northern Trust has extended its footprint in the Asia-Pacific region, announcing this week it had opened a Malaysia Representative Office to support current institutional clients and to develop the company's business in Malaysia and the region.
The company said the Representative Office in Kuala Lumpur would be led by Chief Representative Ariani Rustam, who had joined Northern Trust from Malaysia's central bank.
Commenting on the move, Northern Trust chief operating officer and president William L. Morrison said Malaysia was a dynamic country with a growing economy and increasing global investment, presenting an opportunity for growth in the services his company offered to large, sophisticated institutional investors.
