Calastone, the largest global funds network, announces today that Mirae Asset Brazil is now live on its network for investment funds processing, enabling Brazilian investors to access the largest range of offshore funds markets.
The recent implementation of the new regulatory framework CVM 175 has expanded the international market for Brazilian investors, and with the connection to Calastone’s global network, Mirae is amongst the first to leverage the opportunity that CVM 175 brings. The direct and efficient connectivity to the offshore markets that Calastone offers can be achieved without forcing any changes in processes or existing custody relationships, minimizing any potential cost, additional fees, or other impact on investors.
As emerging market experts with a global perspective, this opportunity fits Mirae’s ambition to deliver excellence in investment management, helping clients to achieve their long-term investment goals through a diverse range of international funds.
Many of the world’s leading financial organisations are connected to Calastone’s global funds network, which offers automation and global connectivity throughout the fund distribution process. With over 3,900 clients in 55 countries and territories, Calastone processes over $300 billion in investment value per month.
William Brennan, Director of New Markets at Calastone, comments:
“We are thrilled that Mirae Asset Brazil is now connected to the Calastone network, enabling unprecedented cross-border connectivity for investors in the country. As Brazil establishes itself as a key global player in the funds market, the connection to Calastone’s global fund network enables Mirae to differentiate and provide a more diversified product offering to their clients with simple, low cost access.”
Taekoo Kim, CEO for Mirae Asset Wealth Management Brazil, comments:
