Bridge Fund Management Limited (“BFML”) is part of the Apex Group. As an independent EU / Irish domiciled Super Management Company we support both UCITS and AIFs.
Bridge group has been providing services to regulated funds since 2005 and established a Management Company in 2016 to provide Management Company (‘ManCo’) services to both UCITS funds and AIFs.
This allows our clients to select from a menu of tasks that is then tailored to their specific needs.
We offer clients a truly independent non-conflicted service designed to put the interests of our clients first. An independent service is critical in light of the increasingly complex regulatory environment in which our clients operate.
The composition of a Fund Board is a critical component of a successful fund structure. We will assist in sourcing appropriate non-executive directors in order to identify the optimum solution and to meet client’s regulatory requirements.
Provision of non-executive directors is not a service which we typically provides to clients, as it is seen as incompatible with its core service and has the potential for conflicts of interest.
Establishing a business in Ireland
We are experienced in assisting organisations seeking to establish operations in Ireland both in the financial services and non-financial services sector. We have assisted a number of multinationals in establishing a substantive presence in Ireland by providing administrative support including accounting, treasury and corporate functions.
This initial support has been developed over time to a business development function, whereby we assisted the company launch some of its parent company’s range of products in the Irish marketplace.
Project Management
We have helped organizations select and implement new IT systems to meet changes in corporate structures and new regulatory requirements by acting as part of a project team.
We supported corporate restructuring and new company launch, the introduction of new services and products, the setting up and re-engineering of business processes and the training of staff.
