Qatar National Bank (QNB) has selected Societe Generale Securities Services (SGSS) to service its Ucits umbrella fund.
Domiciled in Ireland, the QNB Global Funds ICAV (Irish collective asset-management vehicle) currently includes two sub-funds.
The QNB ZyFin India Consumption Ucits ETF, launched in partnership with Indian asset manager ZyFin, is an exchange-traded fund that tracks an index of companies expected to benefit from a rise in consumption-led demand in India. The QNB MENA fund invests in large and mid-cap companies in 11 Arab markets.
SGSS will provide fund services to the ICAV to allow the sub-funds to be distributed to investors throughout Europe. The services include fund administration, transfer agency and depositary and custody services.
The deal with SGSS was completed by QNB Suisse, a subsidiary of Qatar National Bank.
