Hawksford

Hawksford has acquired People & Projects Ltd (P&P), an acquisition which will significantly strengthen its current presence in Hong Kong and Singapore, and provide it with an extensive footprint across major cities in China.

The transaction demonstrates Hawksford’s commitment to the Asian market and takes the corporate, private client and fund administration company’s global headcount to over 400, with 200 now based in Asia. This is the sixth acquisition that Hawksford has made since it was backed by private equity house Dunedin.

Hawksford’s corporate clients will now have access to a greater depth of service across the major economies of Asia, while P&P clients will be able to utilise Hawksford’s wider services in other locations.

P&P’s Partners Stefano Passarello, Dario Acconci and Giacomo Stoppa will become shareholders in Hawksford and continue in senior management roles ensuring continuity for P&P’s longstanding client base.

Michel van Leeuwen, Group Chief Executive of Hawksford, said, “Hawksford’s acquisition of P&P fits our strategic aim of having a truly pan Asian services platform. Fifty percent of Hawksford’s employees are now based in Asia, demonstrating the importance of the region to our business. We are particularly pleased to have secured our own wholly owned operating capability in China and we believe this will be a major growth driver in coming years. Increasingly, corporate clients want to have access to our services across all of Asia as they look to expand their own businesses throughout the region.

“P&P is run by a team of entrepreneurs and professionals
who share Hawksford’s values and strategic goals, and
are passionately client-orientated. We look forward to
integrating P&P’s staff and services into the Hawksford
network. Clients of both Hawksford and P&P will see many
benefits from this acquisition.”

P&P Partners Stefano Passarello, Dario Acconci and
Giacomo Stoppa added, “This acquisition presents an
exciting opportunity for P&P to gain increased access to
the UK market and consolidate our European reach
through the established and respected Hawksford brand,
while P&P’s reach across key Asian countries was
particularly attractive to Hawksford. Under the Hawksford
brand, we welcome the chance to provide scalability and
new services to our established client base."
