Following the recent merger of Ocorian with fellow corporate, funds and fiduciary services business Estera, Farah Ballands, CEO of the combined business, explains how our increased global capability is transforming our business.

What does the merger mean for Ocorian?

"The merger has been transformational. We are now one of the largest corporate, funds, capital markets and private client service providers in the world.

It really does put us in the top tier as we service over 8,000 clients and administer more than $260bn of assets. With over 1,250 colleagues operating across 20 jurisdictions, we are a global, market-leading business of significant scale.

The combination of Estera and Ocorian is incredibly strong. We fit together perfectly. Our histories bear a striking resemblance having been spun out of law firms, and our paths since our MBOs are remarkably similar.
